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

The People's Republic of Socialist Heronia T-39 is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 4.853 billion commie herons are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 69.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Socialist Heronia T-39ian economy, worth 33.0 trillion blocs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 6,796 blocs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Socialist Heronia T-39's national animal is the steel-grey heron, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Socialist Heronia T-39 is ranked 83,057^th in the world and 32^nd in The Communist Blocs Card Factory for Largest Governments, scoring 18.17 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
