The Armed Republic of United state of Biafra is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 655 million United state of Biafrans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Benin City. The average income tax rate is 47.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The very strong United state of Biafran economy, worth 58.1 trillion $biadis 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 a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. 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 88,682 $biadis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
A Europeia Tourist Association survey has rated United state of Biafra #1 for number twos, the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists, joggers are often arrested for breathing too heavily, and students who refuse to pray are expelled from school. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United state of Biafra's national animal is the Baruga.
United state of Biafra is ranked 231,763rd in the world and 895th in Europeia for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -1.41 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
