Gennep NLD

Population2.952 billion

The Kingdom of Gennep NLD is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its soft-spoken computers, punitive income tax rates, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.952 billion Gennep NLDians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 67.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Gennep NLDian economy, worth 395 trillion euros 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. 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 an impressive 134,141 euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Families are left homeless as entire suburbs are bulldozed on the whim of tribal chiefs, armed war-criminals gain asylum if deemed 'fabulous' enough, the government regrets to say that it is forced to make cuts to citizens, and love is a precious butterfly to be crushed under diplomatic protocol. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gennep NLD's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gennep NLD is ranked 31,790th in the world and 267th in Aerospace for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 5,474.33 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
