The Rogue Nation of Dark Estonia is a huge, cultured nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, parental licensing program, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 451 million Dark Estonians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 44.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Dark Estonian economy, worth 18.7 trillion bags 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, broadly diversified black market in Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Furniture Restoration. 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 41,477 bags, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Political radicals send their bags to degree mills for a chance to serve in Parliament, teen boys and girls find stick-figure-aided lectures on their comradestruation emphasises socialist unity more than biology, families consisting of more than three people are forced to split up, and the native owl population is in permanent hibernation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dark Estonia's national animal is the Bullet Tooth Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Dark Estonia is ranked 111,839th in the world and 2,310th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,370.46 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
