The Terrible Trainers of Taskmaster is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its public floggings, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.551 billion Taskmasterians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 44.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The large but underdeveloped Taskmasterian economy, worth 276 trillion blood sweat and tears 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 slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 36,572 blood sweat and tears, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Prison is a nightmare, most pop videos prominently feature the Taskmasterian flag, the only things written in the stars are arrest warrants for astrologers, and the well-to-do in Confederation of Corrupt Dictators are never on time for important appointments. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Taskmaster's national animal is the American Spider-ant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Taskmaster is ranked 306,931st in the world and 4th in Confederation of Corrupt Dictators for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 639.36 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
