The Republic of Durmek is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its burgeoning hawk population. The hard-working, democratic population of 3.183 billion Durmekians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The tiny, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, with Welfare, Healthcare, and Public Transport also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.5%.
The strong Durmekian economy, worth 157 trillion rubledollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Pizza Delivery, and Book Publishing. Average income is 49,405 rubledollars, with the richest citizens earning 8.4 times as much as the poorest.
Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Durmek's national animal is the hawk, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.
Durmek is ranked 139,787th in the world and 2,635th in Suspicious for Highest Food Quality, scoring 16.71 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
