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

The Queen's State of Tchentlo is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 28.391 billion Tchentloans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Education also on the agenda, while Law & Order and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The very strong Tchentloan economy, worth a remarkable 1,140 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Furniture Restoration, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 40,175 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 273,142 per year while the poor average 2,158, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, voting is voluntary, and graffiti graces every city's streets. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Tchentlo's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Tchentlo is ranked 264,210^th in the world and 6^th in Dhaka for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.71 kickbacks per hour.
