The Loving Couple of -ForThe-Future is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Palisman with an iron fist, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, disturbing lack of elderly people, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate, cynical population of 2.236 billion -ForThe-Futureans 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.
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bat Queen Den. The average income tax rate is 65.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse -ForThe-Futurean economy, worth 171 trillion snails 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 Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. 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 76,848 snails, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
The nation wears its high incidence of chromosomal diseases as a badge of pride, the Counter-Terrorism Unit has been nicknamed "Big Bad Wolf" for its tendency towards urban demolition, NationStates is now a popular brand of laxatives despite Max Barry's protests, and quiet professionalism has returned to the nation's armed forces. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -ForThe-Future's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cards.
-ForThe-Future is ranked 137,438th in the world and 23rd in DominosCounrtyRegion for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 676.33 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
