The Empire of Shltpost is a small, orderly nation, remarkable for its digital currency, ubiquitous missile silos, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 20 million Shïtpostianos 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 tiny, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Environment are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.
The powerhouse Shïtpostiano economy, worth 1.70 trillion memeses a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is 85,096 memeses, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 431,286 per year while the poor average 9,314, a ratio of 46.3 to 1.
The nation is currently revamping its entire education system, all tariffs have been abolished, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, and food voucher forgeries are causing headaches for the police. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Shltpost's national animal is the moais, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Shltpost is ranked 269,235th in the world and 12th in Skeridia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 55.64 law-abiding acts per hour.
