The Republic of Space15 is a massive, genial nation, notable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 3.245 billion Space15ians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 42.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Space15ian economy, worth 127 trillion florins a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,241 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
Auditors are gutting every governmental department, atheists in the nation feel uneasy living in buildings where they were once vilified, Leader's support among single young men has drooped slightly, and signs of extraterrestrial life are just foreign astronauts evading Space15ian justice. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Space15's national animal is the wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Space15 is ranked 237,682nd in the world and 8,850th in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 8.62 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
