The Disputed Territories of Snow 11 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism, triple-decker prams, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.511 billion Snow 11ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, with Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Welfare receives no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 47.2%.
The very strong Snow 11ian economy, worth 307 trillion moons 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 Uranium Mining, Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. 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 68,253 moons, with the richest citizens earning 7.3 times as much as the poorest.
Military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, the government has certified several glow-in-the-dark athletes as drug free, the pursuit of wanted criminals ends at the entrance of the pay'n'spray garage as police refuse to enter any private property, and mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Snow 11's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Snow 11 is ranked 104,423rd in the world and 5,507th in Balder for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,912.49 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
