The Commonwealth of Sand Tiger Shark is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, restrictive gun laws, and suspicion of poets. The quiet, industrious population of 2.382 billion Sand Tiger Sharkians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 37.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Sand Tiger Sharkian economy, worth 90.6 trillion Apexias a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 38,052 Apexias, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Back-alley circumcision clinics are popping up all over the nation, victims of crime are viewed as less trustworthy than politicians, demand for night vision goggles and boat engine mufflers has spiked, and commuters travel in zigzags to avoid stalking accusations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sand Tiger Shark's national animal is the Sand Tiger Shark, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.
Sand Tiger Shark is ranked 15,202nd in the world and 1st in Safari for Safest, scoring 116.41 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
