The Republic of Molies57 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.036 billion Molies57ians 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, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 69.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Molies57ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,391 trillion deniers 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 amazing 230,473 deniers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
The men in trenchcoats hanging around playgrounds are actually police officers, military pilots spend more time scraping feathers off their engines than flying their aircraft, sneezing pedestrians are grabbed by alley-lurking doctors, and there's a bright dawn ahead for Molies57. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Molies57's national animal is the panther, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Molies57 is ranked 11,286th in the world and 572nd in Lazarus for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 9,235.76 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
