The I Can't Stop Me of One True Nine is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.079 billion One True Nineans 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, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 56.4%.
The powerhouse One True Ninean economy, worth 467 trillion candybongs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,665 candybongs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 469,660 per year while the poor average 18,508, a ratio of 25.4 to 1.
Jaw strain is an increasingly common ailment, citizens are encouraged to show displeasure with politicians by poking them with sharp metal sticks, the nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas, and a rolling news ticker tape of disclaimers runs across the bottom of the screen on all TV shows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. One True Nine's national animal is the lovely, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
One True Nine is ranked 33,101st in the world and 10th in One in a Million for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,524.28 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
