The Republic of Np 47 is a titanic, efficient nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, avant-garde cinema, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 10.242 billion Np 47ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The very strong Np 47ian economy, worth 882 trillion nps a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Average income is 86,192 nps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Houses and businesses are bulldozed to make way for ever-expanding cemeteries, it is now illegal for teens to view any sites except Club Kitten and My Little Donkey, orphans would rather live their life of luxury than be adopted by prospective parents, and sniffer dogs are trained to follow clouds of fruity-smelling vapor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Np 47's national animal is the np, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Np 47 is ranked 30,532nd in the world and 3rd in Iceland for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 73.11 Effective Tax Rate.
