The Republic of Udaljen is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Jadran Kovačić with an even hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 2.765 billion Udaljenians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Administration, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dobrograd. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Udaljenian economy, worth 412 trillion Udaljenian dinaras 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 Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 149,193 Udaljenian dinaras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
There are no more heroes any more, the consent form for routine blood pressure measurement has been nominated for the 'Novel Of The Year' award, 'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Udaljen's radio stations, and museums offer moralization or your money back. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Udaljen's national animal is the Red-faced cormorant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Udaljen is ranked 302,113th in the world and 439th in Crimson Spire for Nicest Citizens, with 1.02 average smiles per day.
