Absolute Communism510

The Empire of Absolute Communism510 is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, ubiquitous missile silos, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.978 billion Absolute Communism510ians 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 68.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Absolute Communism510ian economy, worth 409 trillion Yen a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 137,464 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Corporations cut costs by taking away safety-features on their products, heavily-laden pregnant women are told they can manage, reporters who negatively comment on politicians' haircuts are cut from the news, and oil rigs in winter are heated by contained oil slick fires. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Absolute Communism510's national animal is the Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Absolute Communism510 is ranked 24,320th in the world and 1,434th in Lazarus for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 6,414.49 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
