Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Dictatorship of King Marsupial is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies. Its compassionate population of 15.484 billion enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and the Environment. The average income tax rate is 48%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, the police crack down on tax evaders without mercy, major cities are suffering under water rationing, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime is totally unknown. King Marsupial's national animal is the koala, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the eucaliptus leaf.

King Marsupial is ranked 36th in Australia and 62,702nd in the world for Most Authoritarian, with 0.287 Stalins.
