The Assassin's Brotherhood of The Master Assassin Ezio Auditore is a massive, devout nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.877 billion are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Defence, although Religion & Spirituality and Law & Order are on the agenda. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Firenze. The average income tax rate is 52%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Citizens must pay to enjoy The Master Assassin Ezio Auditore's pristine beaches, birds and children's kites are regularly brought down by anti-aircraft fire, politicians are often seen with soldiers pointing guns at their heads, and the controversial show 'Who Wants to be an Immigrant?' has become wildly popular. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is a major problem. The Master Assassin Ezio Auditore's national animal is the cat, and its currency is the bomb.

The Master Assassin Ezio Auditore is ranked 2nd in Assassins and 42,575th in the world for Most Income Equality, scoring 139 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
