The UPC of Centrist Card Farm 168 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its aversion to nipples, free-roaming dinosaurs, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.009 billion Centrist Card Farm 168ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Centrist Card Farm 168ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,065 trillion Cards 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. 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 an impressive 152,019 Cards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs, brave curators do battle with disorganised government libraries, a positive pregnancy test doubles as a visa, and children are terrified that the 'flying police monster' will come to take them away in the night. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Centrist Card Farm 168's national animal is the Raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Centrist Card Farm 168 is ranked 20,640th in the world and 286th in Memeland United for Most Corrupt Governments, with 98.18 kickbacks per hour.
