The Republic of SIMERINGI is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Wielki Simering with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cheerful population of 16.434 billion SIMERINGIS are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of SIMERINGI City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.5%.
The frighteningly efficient SIMERINGIian economy, worth a remarkable 6,763 trillion plns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 411,565 plns, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,392,939 per year while the poor average 89,866, a ratio of 15.5 to 1.
Excessive wheelchair ramps on government buildings have been compared to theme park attractions, decongestants have replaced plns in street transactions, an extra hand on the leg will give a horse-and-a-half of lead in a hundred jiffies on seven furlongs, and diplomatic fallout tends to be much more dangerous than radioactive fallout. Crime is totally unknown. SIMERINGI's national animal is the squirrel, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
SIMERINGI is ranked 7,273rd in the world and 387th in Balder for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 12,910.44 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
