The Colony of 2969 is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its burgeoning parrot population. The hard-working, democratic population of 1.572 billion 2969ians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The tiny, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, although Healthcare, Welfare, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.8%.
The very strong 2969ian economy, worth 84.1 trillion bitcoins a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 53,529 bitcoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 155,027 per year while the poor average 14,647, a ratio of 10.6 to 1.
All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. 2969's national animal is the parrot, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.
2969 is ranked 140,940th in the world and 8th in The Card Void for Most Developed, scoring 56.81 on the Human Development Index.
