Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Colony of Mortarmen is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Supreme General Rewol with an even hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of public education. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 2.584 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Commerce. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rewolgrad. The average income tax rate is 2%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing industries.

The new hit series "Mortarmen's Got Trauma" has corporate executives fleeing the country, roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, government police forces protect public schools from the threat of protest, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Mortarmen's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Rewolism, and its currency is the Pence.

Mortarmen is ranked 92nd in Coalition of Catholic States and 109,505th in the world for Most Extreme, scoring 9 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
