The Holy Hellish Traffic Wall of I 76 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Eisenhower with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 11.158 billion Highwaymen 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Philadelphia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 71.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Roadworthy economy, worth a remarkable 1,057 trillion highways a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 94,764 highways, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.
Twins move across the country to avoid being accused of the other's crimes, there's a revolutionary culture in the nation's dairies, judges are rumored to find in favor of whoever bribes them the most, and the government has adopted a "Lightning Never Strikes Twice" approach to dealing with natural disasters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. I 76's national animal is the interstate, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Constructionist.
I 76 is ranked 91,246th in the world and 4,745th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 67.01 law-abiding acts per hour.
