The Federal Republic of Victims

“HELP ME!!!!!!!!”

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

The Federal Republic of Victims is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its teetotalling pirates, avowedly heterosexual populace, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 26.329 billion Victimsians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 47.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Victimsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,985 trillion victims a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Woodchip Exports. 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 75,411 victims, with the richest citizens earning 9.9 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are less concerned with policy and more concerned with whether politicians "call 'em like they see 'em", international collectors know that a grease-stain on a work of art probably means it's passed through Victims, minstrels carrying coconut shells provide sound effects wherever their nobles wander, and pet owners want to know why their animals keep smiling at them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Victims's national animal is the victim, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is to blame the victim.

Victims is ranked 982^nd in the world and 4^th in The ProcrastiNations for Most Primitive, scoring 256.8 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
