The Republic of Code009 is a titanic, genial nation, renowned for its frequent executions, ritual sacrifices, and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 10.152 billion Code009ians 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 Defense, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 31.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Code009ian economy, worth 596 trillion lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 58,738 lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.
Young adults are stepping outside for the first time in ages after video games were recently banned, it's considered providence that the political lexicon contains a syrup of company slogans, adultery has been made a capital offence, and lending money has become a major liability. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Code009's national animal is the unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
