The People's Republic of Socialist Greatbriar is a very large, genial nation, notable for its frequent executions, ritual sacrifices, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 207 million Socialist Greatbriarians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 42.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Socialist Greatbriarian economy, worth 9.15 trillion No Currencies a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 44,195 No Currencies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
Exterminators swarm Socialist Greatbriarian homes, thousands of children die every day from easily curable illnesses, a referendum must be held in order for any new law to be passed, and students who refuse to pray are expelled from school. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Socialist Greatbriar's national animal is the Bourgeoisie, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Socialist Greatbriar is ranked 79,499th in the world and 5th in Socialist Mode of Production for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,717.12 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
