The Empire of Subakori is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its triple-decker prams, enslaved workforce, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.151 billion Subakorishi are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 69.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Subakorishi economy, worth 93.5 trillion rounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Basket Weaving and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 81,242 rounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Police wait behind troop deployments in order to shoot deserters, the big red machine has ground to a halt, investigative journalism into politicians' misbehaviour has abruptly ended, and counselors have to sign pledges supporting gay rights before they can speak to any patients. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Subakori's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Subakori is ranked 45,124th in the world and 243rd in Europeia for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 69.51 Effective Tax Rate.
