The Republic of Reqin is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 3.941 billion Reqinians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The minute, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.2%.
The strong Reqinian economy, worth 210 trillion Imperial Egg Capsules a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 53,503 Imperial Egg Capsules, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 344,836 per year while the poor average 3,353, a ratio of 102 to 1.
Military spending recently hit a new high, organ donation is compulsory, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and being Leader has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Reqin's national animal is the mutant shark, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
Reqin is ranked 82,407th in the world and 136th in Drew is life Drew is love for Most Corrupt Governments, with 19.57 kickbacks per hour.
