The Republic of United Contona is a huge, cultured nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 749 million United Contonans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government prioritizes Education, although Welfare, Healthcare, and Social Policy are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 66.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The very strong United Contonan economy, worth 56.9 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. Average income is 75,978 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The 'sing-a-long with Leader' album is a popular souvenir, Leader is considering changing the United Contonan flag to one with more glitter, getting an autograph has become harder than ever, and the Department of Reduction of Bureaucratic Red Tape has set up a working committee to investigate its own excessive paperwork. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United Contona's national animal is the beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
United Contona is ranked 116,664th in the world and 33rd in Thegye for Most Stationary, with 135.12336490988 days.
