The Free Market Plutocracy of New Portuguese Empire is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Chief Financial Officer with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 4.511 billion New Portuguese are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The minute, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Santazela. Income tax is unheard of.
The frighteningly efficient New Portuguese Empirean economy, worth a remarkable 1,587 trillion Escudoes a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 351,873 Escudoes, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,233,171 per year while the poor average 3,973, a ratio of 813 to 1.
The nation's entire cultural heritage is being auctioned off to the rich, abortions are routinely performed in the nation's hospitals, when shaking hands with foreign leaders Chief Financial Officer wears an armoured gauntlet, and shopping comes bagged and tagged. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. New Portuguese Empire's national animal is the Iberian Fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.
New Portuguese Empire is ranked 273,944th in the world and 1,700th in 10000 Islands for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring -27.75 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
