The Realm of Terra da Cinza is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by High Tenko Neves with an even hand, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, sprawling nuclear power plants, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 9.747 billion Ashlanders are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rio Sangrento. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 21.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Terra da Cinzan economy, worth a remarkable 3,048 trillion Fuzileiroes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 312,772 Fuzileiroes, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,898,770 per year while the poor average 22,926, a ratio of 82.8 to 1.
Pirates armed with sonar-guided semi-autonomous torpedos and laser weapons systems are often seen capturing fishing trawlers, online terrorists are automatically assigned adverts for cheap balaclavas, fat-shaming is now public policy, and even God cannot save you in Terra da Cinza. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Terra da Cinza's national animal is the 9-tailed fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Pure Shinto.
Terra da Cinza is ranked 9,738th in the world and 1st in Ashlands for Largest Black Market, with 640 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
