The Loving Couple of -Woah-Crikey is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Hello willow with an iron fist, and renowned for its parental licensing program, public floggings, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.745 billion -Woah-Crikeyians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Public Transport receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ooze Cruise Travel. The average income tax rate is 35.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The thriving -Woah-Crikeyian economy, worth 310 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 large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. 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 82,841 snails, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
High-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, it's a hard-knock life for the orphans doing factory work for a pittance, all writing must pass a censorship board before being allowed on the shelves, and religious people are committed to mental institutions for treatment. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. -Woah-Crikey's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cards.
-Woah-Crikey is ranked 42,439th in the world and 3rd in ravana for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 169.71 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
