The Feudal Warlords of Samurai Shogunate is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Tokugawa Ieyasu with an iron fist, and renowned for its teetotalling pirates, parental licensing program, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.299 billion Ronins are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edo. The average income tax rate is 92.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Ronin economy, worth a remarkable 1,618 trillion Yen a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an impressive 174,027 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Matryoshka dolls resembling nested Death Stars are commonly sold, would-be mescaline users often describe a crawling sensation on their skin, new government leaflets tell coeliac children to eat more crisps, and actors are arrested and interrogated if they play terrorists on TV. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Samurai Shogunate's national animal is the Pheasant, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Shinto.
Samurai Shogunate is ranked 45,651st in the world and 1st in Sengoku for Most Stationary, with 957.17097074352 days.
