The Makasta is a sinner of Makasta33 is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its public floggings, soft-spoken computers, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 6.398 billion Makasta33ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.0%.
The Makasta33ian economy, worth 558 trillion bitcoins 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 a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. 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 87,365 bitcoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 278,764 per year while the poor average 20,815, a ratio of 13.4 to 1.
Even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious, parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, prison is a nightmare, and escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Makasta33's national animal is the dolphin, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.
