“Hockey For The People!”

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

The Democratic Socialist Union of Pucki is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Owen Singh with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.596 billion Puckians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pucki City. The average income tax rate is 75.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Puckian economy, worth 215 trillion Puckaroos a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 83,154 Puckaroos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Homophobia is off the menu, doctors accused of having no heart reply that cardiology isn't their speciality, beaches are empty as the shark population multiplies exponentially, and a traveller who once stubbed a toe on an Air Brancaland flight has been offered asylum. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pucki's national animal is the Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Pucki is ranked 127,618^th in the world and 4,209^th in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 869.18 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
