The Republic of Toothbrush

“Liberté égalité fraternité ou la mort”

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

The Republic of Toothbrush is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Toothbrush with an even hand, and notable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 6.898 billion Toothbrushians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sourire. The average income tax rate is 99.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Toothbrushian economy, worth a remarkable 1,070 trillion teeth 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 mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 155,217 teeth, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Flu research is commonly shut down for fear of creating a superbug, crossword puzzles have been co-opted as a symbol of racial discrimination, it turns out you can teach cats new tricks, and veteran cops reminisce over their heavy armor days. Crime is totally unknown. Toothbrush's national animal is the bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Toothbrush is ranked 328,504^th in the world and 224^th in Refugia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -15.75 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
