The Republic of Yisrel is a huge, socially progressive nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 220 million Yisrelits 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 juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 33.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Yisrelian economy, worth 9.86 trillion Shekels a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 44,828 Shekels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Forgetting to pay your annual passport bill is a leading cause of deportations, passionate nomination battles are often as intense as general elections, weekly religious services often resemble campaign rallies, and class action lawsuits have gone up in smoke thanks to government interference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yisrel's national animal is the gazelle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Yisrel is ranked 35,000th in the world and 1,831st in Osiris for Nicest Citizens, with 18.34 average smiles per day.
