The Republic of The Muzzled Striker is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 8.449 billion Muzzled Strikerians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 42.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant Muzzled Strikerian economy, worth 89.1 trillion guilders 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 Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. 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 10,539 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Prison walls have had to be modified to keep parkour-trained criminals from escaping, increasing numbers of children in The Muzzled Striker have different eye and hair color to their supposed fathers, elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, and a major religion has been named as The Muzzled Striker's national religion. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Muzzled Striker's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
The Muzzled Striker is ranked 225,956th in the world and 140th in The Nationstates Assembly for Highest Food Quality, scoring 9.69 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
