The Jade Dragon Kingdom of Porcelain and Silk is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Yellow Emperor with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 9.554 billion Seres are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Peking. The average income tax rate is 91.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Porcelain economy, worth a remarkable 1,676 trillion yuan a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 175,499 yuan, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
A passport is literally priceless, The Pipe Bomb Makers' Pop-Up Book can be found in preschool libraries, no personal detail is too tiny for the suede-denim census police, and the nation's counterintelligence budget is all up in the air. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Porcelain and Silk's national animal is the Jade Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Confucianism.
Porcelain and Silk is ranked 189,893rd in the world and 3rd in Commons for Most Stationary, with 62.030515856 days.
