The Jellyfish Jepublic of The Washington Federation 2 is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The democratic population of 4.265 billion Washington Federation 2ians 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 Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 58.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant Washington Federation 2ian economy, worth 43.2 trillion dollars 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 black market in Tourism, Cheese Exports, Pizza Delivery, 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 10,123 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Washington Federation 2's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
The Washington Federation 2 is ranked 112,959th in the world and 5,866th in Balder for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 43.68 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
