The People's Republic of Ploz is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 493 million Plozians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 65.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but underdeveloped Plozian economy, worth 16.4 trillion plozties a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 33,231 plozties, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
'A is for Annulment' is a popular children's song, it is now illegal for teens to view any sites except Club Kitten and My Little Donkey, political shows are fit for purpose, and a common response to government PSAs is "well, DUH, obviously". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ploz's national animal is the termite, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Ploz is ranked 42,631st in the world and 213th in The Leftist Assembly for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 51.96 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
