The Kingdom of Afro-Dude is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate, cynical population of 387 million are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Public Transport, Law & Order, and Social Equality. The average income tax rate is 51%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.
The government spends millions of chocolates every year prosecuting spammers, people are now classified as male, female, or genderqueer, corporations cut costs by taking away safety-features on their products, and phone taps are frequently carried out by the police. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is moderate, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Afro-Dude's national animal is the afroduck, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the chocolate.
Afro-Dude is ranked 3rd in the region and 57,890th in the world for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry.
