The 🥔🥔🥔 of Potato is a titanic, orderly nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, state-planned economy, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 20.205 billion Potatoes are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 70.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong a Potato economy, worth a remarkable 1,578 trillion guilders 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 a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. 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 78,112 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
High-tech infantry rifles automatically reload when the soldier shoots outside the screen of their helmet HUD, on-duty Air Potato flight attendants are usually seen napping in first class, professionals are ready to retire by the time they receive permission to use their credentials, and the term cold case has taken on a very literal meaning. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Potato's national animal is the man, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Potato is ranked 19,140th in the world and 644th in Balder for Largest Populations, with 20.2 billion capita.
