Acipenser oxyrhynchus

The Sturgeon of Acipenser oxyrhynchus is a massive, pleasant nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, devout population of 2.811 billion Acipenser oxyrhynchusians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.2%.

The Acipenser oxyrhynchusian economy, worth 157 trillion pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 56,060 pesos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 200,558 per year while the poor average 11,249, a ratio of 17.8 to 1.

Leader's iHouse is so intelligent that it manages its own social media accounts, posters on 'Acipenser Oxyrhynchusian Values' advise against being proud of Acipenser oxyrhynchus, student athletes gaze forlornly at abandoned Sturgeonball fields, and employers may fire workers without giving any reason. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Acipenser oxyrhynchus's national animal is the Sturgeon, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Acipenser oxyrhynchus is ranked 219,030th in the world and 108th in Canada for Highest Food Quality, scoring 10.4 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
