The Sovereign State of Polisey Coupola is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Goyo Hari Raijin Luned Hershey with an iron fist, and remarkable for its fear of technology, free-roaming dinosaurs, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.292 billion Polisey Coupolans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ezleles. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 62.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Polisey Coupolan economy, worth 595 trillion Bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 112,555 Bitcoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 343,834 per year while the poor average 28,558, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.
The Hanging Gardens account for half of Ezleles's water use, the restriction that you must be over 1.1 metres tall to ride a carnotaurus has recently been waived, churches across the land are hurriedly installing auto-tune for their choirs, and politicians spend more time in courtrooms than in Parliament. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Polisey Coupola's national animal is the Squirrel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Unitarianism.
Polisey Coupola is ranked 143,364th in the world and 3,040th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 189.08124704348 days.
