The government subsidises medicines of mass destruction, depression sinks in after each election when voters realize they are stuck with these people for years, promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service, and grim instructresses lead the unwillingly impregnated in chants of "it's all my fault" and "blessed be the fruit". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer295's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
