The Protectorate of Spice Harvester 1EF is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its teetotalling pirates, complete lack of prisons, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, devout population of 6.094 billion Spice Harvester 1EFians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 35.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The strong Spice Harvester 1EFian economy, worth 380 trillion spices 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 Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, 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 62,365 spices, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
A firework a day does not in fact keep the doctor away, the industries of Spice Harvester 1EF are coughing all the way to the bank, war is made in the name of love, and consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Spice Harvester 1EF's national animal is the sandworm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Spice Harvester 1EF is ranked 169,896th in the world and 425th in Jihad Army of the Emperor for Lowest Crime Rates, with 59.31 law-abiding acts per hour.
