The Republic of Consul136 is a very large, genial nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 339 million Consul136ians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 49.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The very strong Consul136ian economy, worth 20.5 trillion pesos a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,399 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Only the rich can afford the latest medical innovations, throwing a sickie is a serious crime, it is cheaper to die in the wilderness than to survive, and armed security details escort librarians to their homes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Consul136's national animal is the cobra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Consul136 is ranked 295,614th in the world and 162nd in Lower Llobregat for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.43 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
