The Freople of Soem

“Wealth tax, cap the richest (10% top 10, 1% next 100)”

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

The Freople of Soem is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Pyt Snarfulton with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, unlimited-speed roads, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 41.357 billion Soemeosy hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Snarf City. The average income tax rate is 49.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Soemeon economy, worth an astonishing 11,576 trillion Ideas a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 279,911 Ideas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, exam halls are littered with used needles and empty pill bottles, playing card suits are sold separately, and the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Snarf City. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Soem's national animal is the Snarf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Soem is ranked 1,011^th in the world and 23^rd in the South Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 98.55 on the Human Development Index.
