The Jingoistic States of Estopity is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.651 billion Estopityians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Law & Order, although Defense, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 40.9%.
The strong Estopityian economy, worth 141 trillion Pesos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 53,272 Pesos, with the richest citizens earning 9.2 times as much as the poorest.
Red Cross demand for body bags is rising while sutures go unused, it is illegal to carry an umbrella when the official weather forecast predicts a sunny day, hiding wrinkles with make-up is illegal, and the Coast Guard is pioneering a quixotic program to train fish. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Estopity's national animal is the Kiwi, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Estopity is ranked 221,652nd in the world and 1st in The Junkyard for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 31,484.01 Standard Monetary Units.
