The Terrifying Screech of Javelins of Light is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its burgeoning cobra population. The cynical population of 4.788 billion Javelins of Lightians are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.
The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 28.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The large but underdeveloped Javelins of Lightian economy, worth 144 trillion bitcoins a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 30,082 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Javelins of Light's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Javelins of Light is ranked 234,329th in the world and 4th in Global Union Consortium for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 21,599.54 Standard Monetary Units.
