The Grand Duchy of Puppet State 302 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.436 billion Puppet State 302ians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.
The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.4%.
The thriving Puppet State 302ian economy, worth 218 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 63,469 dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 239,894 per year while the poor average 11,683, a ratio of 20.5 to 1.
People seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, elections have been outlawed, and preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Puppet State 302's national animal is the emu, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Puppet State 302 is ranked 34,468th in the world and 5th in Silly for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 60,677.25 Standard Monetary Units.
