The Democratic Republic of Deafish is a fledgling, safe nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 5 million Deafishians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 16.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Deafishian economy, worth 222 billion R$s a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Cheese Exports, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 44,316 R$s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Crime is totally unknown. Deafish's national animal is the Whale.
Deafish is ranked 190,580th in the world and 555th in Horizon for Highest Drug Use, scoring 96.17 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
