Panzer Vor 378

The Republic of Panzer Vor 378 is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, zero percent divorce rate, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.951 billion Panzer Vor 378ians 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 enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 66.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Panzer Vor 378ian economy, worth 67.8 trillion Dollars 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 black market in Information Technology, Cheese Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. 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 34,731 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many marriages go virtually unconsummated, cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors, singing in public is only allowed if you are singing the praise of the Motherland, and it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Panzer Vor 378's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Panzer Vor 378 is ranked 259,128th in the world and 7,852nd in Suspicious for Highest Food Quality, scoring 7.21 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
