“Pride and Industry”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Republic of Plutonium-238 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 11.69 billion Plutonium-238ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 58.5%.

The thriving Plutonium-238ian economy, worth 765 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Tourism. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 65,472 pounds, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

Plutonium-238 City's main city thoroughfare has been blocked by a row of leyland cypresses that mysteriously appeared overnight, space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space, private businesses are paving paradises to put up parking lots, and anti-vaxxers claim that injected children are prone to psychotic breaks when they see the 'Queen of Diamonds' playing card. Crime is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Plutonium-238's national animal is the crocodile, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Plutonium-238 is ranked 186,080^th in the world and 2,550^th in Artificial Solar System for Lowest Crime Rates, with 57.92 law-abiding acts per hour.
