The Socialist coalition of The Eastern Bloc nations is a massive, safe nation, ruled by General Secretaries Assembly with an even hand, and remarkable for its fear of technology, ban on automobiles, and ubiquitous missile silos. The humorless, devout population of 4.771 billion Eastern Europeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Warsaw Berlin Bucharest Prague and Sofia. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.
The all-consuming Eastern European economy, worth 653 trillion 10 currencieses 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 mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 137,061 10 currencieses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Signs saying "No Poor People or Weirdoes" are common outside shops and cafés, the government regrets to say that it is forced to make cuts to citizens, the government regularly publishes lengthy reports on its own excessive recordkeeping, and churches frequently hold public 'contraception burnings'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Eastern Bloc nations's national animal is the bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is All religions.
The Eastern Bloc nations is ranked 288,095th in the world and 102nd in Wintercrest for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -18.32 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
