The Queendom of Shadow Queendom is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.688 billion Shadow Queendomians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and International Aid are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.8%.
The thriving Shadow Queendomian economy, worth 129 trillion coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 76,815 coins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 323,966 per year while the poor average 11,799, a ratio of 27.5 to 1.
There's a bustling black market for vegetables, hunters often become the hunted, half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, and auctioneers practice saying "lightly used tank" with a straight face. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Shadow Queendom's national animal is the ghost, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Shadow Queendom is ranked 119,813th in the world and 104th in Fifth Empire for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,756.48 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
