The Founder Nation of Rebel Youth is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 28.392 billion Rebel Youthians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Policy, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Revolutionary Square. The average income tax rate is 94.8%.
The enormous but inefficient Rebel Youthian economy, worth a remarkable 1,651 trillion Useless Papers a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 58,160 Useless Papers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The Rebel Youth Enquirer offers weekly cash prizes for 'most blasphemous song, story, or cartoon', conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, the mining industry has taken a hit from tighter environmental regulations, and scientists recently cloned the long-extinct feather-bellied Red Winged Owl. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rebel Youth's national animal is the Red Winged Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Rebel Youth is ranked 283,603rd in the world and 1st in The Communist Party of NationStates for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -11.92 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
