The Republic of White Noise

“Blood for Blood”

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

The Republic of White Noise is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Thomas Richard Harryman with an iron fist, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, zero percent divorce rate, and enslaved workforce. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 23.184 billion White Noiseans 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 tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dethklok. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.6%.

The frighteningly efficient White Noisean economy, worth a remarkable 6,307 trillion Bloodmarks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 272,075 Bloodmarks, with the richest citizens earning 9.8 times as much as the poorest.

Card players are calling the government's bluff on anti-gambling legislation, teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers, women no longer need to pepper conversations with incessant references to fictitious husbands, and lending money has become a major liability. Crime is totally unknown. White Noise's national animal is the Blood Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Pastafarian.

White Noise is ranked 1,511^th in the world and 1^st in Critical Mass for Most Stationary, with 3,734.70594312 days.
