The Tropical Paradise of Great Tequila Island is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Holly Peña with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, complete lack of prisons, and complete absence of social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.282 billion Tequilans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Loz Mezcaleros. The average income tax rate is 49.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Tequilan economy, worth a remarkable 1,244 trillion ¥escas a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 110,288 ¥escas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.
The family summer vacation has become a thing of the past following the introduction of the year-round school year, children spend all morning taking out a comma and all afternoon putting it back in again, a third of Tequilans are e-certified CEOs, and Holly Peña's peyote-induced "let's all just be friends" speech is trending world-wide. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Great Tequila Island's national animal is the Tequila Mockingbird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholicism.
Great Tequila Island is ranked 84,425th in the world and 52nd in International Democratic Union for Lowest Crime Rates, with 67.94 law-abiding acts per hour.
