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

The Dictatorship of The Flapping Spaghetti Monster is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by The Holy Risotto with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, enslaved workforce, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 4.227 billion Flapping Spaghetti Monsterians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Macaroni. The average income tax rate is 92.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Flapping Spaghetti Monsterian economy, worth a remarkable 2,170 trillion dollars 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, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Soda Sales. 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 a breathtaking 513,527 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Travelers often bring empty plastic bottles on Air The Flapping Spaghetti Monster flights to avoid the pay lavatories, bronze and marble supplies are running low as sculptors depict full-figured subjects, cars have been banned, and jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Flapping Spaghetti Monster's national animal is the squirrel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Pastafarianism.

The Flapping Spaghetti Monster is ranked 220,018^th in the world and 5,878^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 115.93 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
