The Republic of What Makes You Beautiful is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, infamous sell-swords, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.527 billion What Makes You Beautifulians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.4%.
The strong What Makes You Beautifulian economy, worth 84.7 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Soda Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 55,485 pounds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 176,761 per year while the poor average 13,250, a ratio of 13.3 to 1.
Phenotypic plasticity is a struggle for sealife in polluted waters, construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground, military pistols are more secure than the national treasury, and the family summer vacation has become a thing of the past following the introduction of the year-round school year. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. What Makes You Beautiful's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
What Makes You Beautiful is ranked 97,696th in the world and 562nd in Artificial Solar System for Highest Average Incomes, with 55,485.55 Standard Monetary Units.
