The Pharaoh Eternal of Hatshepsut is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Hatshepsut with an iron fist, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, public floggings, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.679 billion Hatshepsutians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Memphis. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Hatshepsutian economy, worth a remarkable 1,581 trillion silver rings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Pizza Delivery. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 163,362 silver rings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
High school boys are required to pass vigorous self-mastery and sensitivity training to graduate, government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, policemen regularly conduct midnight raids on closed donut shops to 'collect evidence', and toast never burns but always has a weird chemical taste. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hatshepsut's national animal is the Falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Coptic.
Hatshepsut is ranked 77,696th in the world and 3rd in Egypt for Most Primitive, scoring 31.06 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
