The Armed Republic of Nuclearbombistan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by TNT Steve with an iron fist, and renowned for its state-planned economy, parental licensing program, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.297 billion Nuclearbombistanis are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grenade-a. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 29.2%.
The all-consuming Nuclearbombistanian economy, worth 512 trillion Nukes 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. 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 155,506 Nukes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 579,038 per year while the poor average 29,313, a ratio of 19.8 to 1.
Citizens who fail to follow the official national religion are executed, colonial citizens are forced to sing the praise of the "Great Nuclearbombistanian Liberator", the only way to escape lengthy prison terms is in a body bag, and genetic screening weeds out citizens whose legs don't bend easily at the knee. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Nuclearbombistan's national animal is the Armed Raccoon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Violence.
Nuclearbombistan is ranked 82,276th in the world and 4,476th in Lazarus for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 2,102.76 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
