The Dictatorship of Viperi is a huge, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, state-planned economy, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 231 million Viperians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Law & Order, and Public Transport are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 33.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Viperian economy, worth 12.0 trillion Viperians a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 52,110 Viperians, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
The optimally efficient parking strategy for business commuters is referred to as the "traveling salesman problem", political candidates recite daily pledges of loyalty to their chosen party, glancing at the car radio display while driving is treated as attempted homicide, and internet searches for the inventor of the three-wheeled steam-powered Viperian weed picker are way up. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Viperi's national animal is the The Asp, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Viperi is ranked 268,344th in the world and 111th in Ridgefield for Most Extreme, scoring 7.78 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
