The Democratic Republic of Tolerativ is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 13.082 billion Tolerativians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — prioritizes Administration, although Social Policy, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berkeley. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Tolerativian economy, worth a remarkable 2,718 trillion Flowers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 207,833 Flowers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed, pizzerias must now display shrines to the Pizza God, those who cut young children are told to cut it out, and nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tolerativ's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Tolerativ is ranked 137,490th in the world and 2,842nd in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 223.55664164588 days.
