The Protectorate of Spice Harvester 21A is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, ritual sacrifices, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.11 billion Spice Harvester 21Aians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 19.9%.
The strong Spice Harvester 21Aian economy, worth 116 trillion spices a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is 54,998 spices, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.
