Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Republic of Millrovia is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its devotion to social welfare. Its hard-working, intelligent population of 11.31 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Social Welfare, although Education and Defence are secondary priorities. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 81%. A healthy private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Arms Manufacturing and Uranium Mining.

It is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, and voting is voluntary. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Millrovia's national animal is the dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the dollar.

Millrovia is ranked 3rd in Snopesean Archipelago and 89,969th in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -21 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
