The Cyan-Depleted Cartridges of Printer303 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its daily referendums, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.55 billion Printer303ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 88.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Printer303ian economy, worth 802 trillion cards a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 144,605 cards, with the richest citizens earning 6.4 times as much as the poorest.
Stern tutting by international commentators has persuaded Printer303 to disarm, intellectual snobbery has the cognoscenti sneering at anyone who doesn't have an opinion on the semiological drift of Umberto Eco's works, chocolate in Printer303 has its flavour enhanced by the salty tears of enslaved factory workers, and doctors prescribe medicines produced by the last pharmaceutical company to give them a free pen. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer303's national animal is the legendary, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Printer303 is ranked 95,392nd in the world and 1,507th in Two for Largest Populations, with 5.55 billion capita.
