The Indian Red Node of Node Indian Red is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its enslaved workforce, infamous sell-swords, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.579 billion Node Indian Redians 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 72.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Node Indian Redian economy, worth 602 trillion Nodecoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 131,618 Nodecoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
The nation's interest in space is at an all-time high while interest in saving the planet is at an all-time low, people who tease dwarfs are being cut down to size, engineers ask liberal arts majors "Do you want fries with that?", and the government seizes corporate assets it deems 'scary enough'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Node Indian Red's national animal is the Circuit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Node Indian Red is ranked 188,708th in the world and 129th in The Node for Largest Black Market, with 587 billion Standard Monetary Units.
