The Republic of Issue Nation State is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 13.512 billion Issue Nation Staters are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The minute government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Education, although Industry is also considered important, while Healthcare and Law & Order receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.
The thriving Issue Nation Statean economy, worth 513 trillion euros a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 37,978 euros, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 111,928 per year while the poor average 10,140, a ratio of 11.0 to 1.
A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, eight year-olds with lemonade stands have been known to be locked up on charges of embezzlement, dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, and Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Issue Nation State's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Issue Nation State is ranked 189,390th in the world and 4,524th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 63.1939873336 days.
