The Republic of Socialist Test 426

“Mostly Harmless”

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

The Republic of Socialist Test 426 is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.527 billion Socialist Test 426ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Socialist Test 426ian economy, worth 736 trillion Deneroes a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 162,606 Deneroes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Executions often take hours as amateurs attempt to find veins, metal detectors have been banned after a bottle cap caused a riot at the beach, the national census includes an opt-in to join the government-run dating service, and government officials have to mortgage their homes to make ends meet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Socialist Test 426's national animal is the Black Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Socialist Test 426 is ranked 16,521^st in the world and 1,201^st in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 92.71 law-abiding acts per hour.
