The Republic of SouthernSanity is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 6.674 billion SouthernSanityians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 72.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant SouthernSanityian economy, worth 41.1 trillion H$s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 6,162 H$s, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Cars are banned, voting is compulsory, the banshee wail foretells skies of death, and hordes of tourists are ruining the environment. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SouthernSanity's national animal is the My Little Ponies, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
SouthernSanity is ranked 40,231st in the world and 472nd in the South Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,125.21752986032 days.
