Cyphlous

Population166 million

AnimalThe Great Cyphlousion Horse

The Kingdom of Cyphlous is a very large, safe nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, digital currency, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate population of 166 million Cyphlousians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 24.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Cyphlousian economy, worth 9.31 trillion Cyphlousian Crowns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 56,108 Cyphlousian Crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Genetic screening weeds out citizens whose legs don't bend easily at the knee, elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, nerdy teenagers have to prove that they're made of the same stuff as their grandparents, and skateparks can be found in every city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cyphlous's national animal is the The Great Cyphlousion Horse, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Cyphlous is ranked 90,221st in the world and 1,997th in The North Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,842.23 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
