Location: Apartheid South Africa

Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Republic of Conservative Apartheid is a massive, economically powerful nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.598 billion are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, moralistic government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Religion & Spirituality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pretoria. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 39%. A small but healthy private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

Voting is voluntary, the right to free speech is being drastically curtailed, the education system is famed for its taxing exams, and shanty towns are forming in the suburbs of major cities. Crime is moderate. Conservative Apartheid's national animal is the Springbok Antelope, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Dutch Reformed Christianity, and its currency is the South African Rand.

Conservative Apartheid is ranked 10th in Apartheid South Africa and 100,495th in the world for Most Pacifist, scoring -81 on the Lennon-Springsteen Scale.
