The Kingdom of Two-Sicillies is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Francesco III with an even hand, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 3.462 billion Sicilliesians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Naples. The average income tax rate is 12.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Sicilliesian economy, worth 573 trillion Ducats a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 165,672 Ducats, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Mandatory state-funded classes teach Libertarianism, fur coats have become the latest fashion trend, residents of newly dried out bays live in fear of leaky dikes, and schoolchildren are taught to boo and hiss at Francesco III's name. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Two-Sicillies's national animal is the Persano Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.
Two-Sicillies is ranked 16,297th in the world and 787th in Osiris for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6,325.15 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
