The Holy Empire of Smoochi2 is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, public floggings, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 24.878 billion Smoochi2ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 28.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The thriving Smoochi2ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,687 trillion Smoochis a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 67,818 Smoochis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
The government raises tariffs on a weekly basis, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, gay hospital patients are labelled with a pink triangle to alert staff of their substandard blood, and the government is a proud sponsor of the National Gaming Association. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Smoochi2's national animal is the Casper, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Smoochi2 is ranked 205,351st in the world and 1st in Arbor for Nicest Citizens, with 11.33 average smiles per day.
