The Grand Duchy of Chocolate Maker is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 44.08 billion Chocolate Makerians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 74.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but sluggish Chocolate Makerian economy, worth 639 trillion francs a year, is highly specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 14,512 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
It is illegal to make racist remarks in public. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chocolate Maker's national animal is the sprout.
Chocolate Maker is ranked 139,271st in the world and 2nd in Luxembourg for Lowest Crime Rates, with 61.9 law-abiding acts per hour.
