The Dominion of Captain John Quelch is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 8.265 billion Quelchians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Public Transport, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 27.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The large but underdeveloped Captain John Quelchian economy, worth 293 trillion kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, Cheese Exports, and Trout Farming. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 35,568 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Captain John Quelch's national animal is the kiwi.
Captain John Quelch is ranked 28,661st in the world and 1st in Penobscot Bay for Most Stationary, with 1,394.17600356012 days.
