The Republic of Molies16 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its soft-spoken computers, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.208 billion Molies16ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Molies16ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,616 trillion kronor 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. 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 amazing 224,265 kronor, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 728,317 per year while the poor average 52,068, a ratio of 14.0 to 1.
The entire entry for Molies16 in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the World reads 'mostly harmless', black tea is only available on the black market, only AIs know why the nation is rapidly increasing its semiconductor stockpile, and citizens who leave the nation for work are instantly charged with treason. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Molies16's national animal is the penguin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
Molies16 is ranked 115,616th in the world and 2,098th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 328.685379919 days.
