Consul66

Population334 million

The Republic of Consul66 is a very large, genial nation, remarkable for its avant-garde cinema, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 334 million Consul66ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 61.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Consul66ian economy, worth 14.4 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Soda Sales, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 43,232 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Compass sales have gone south, Consul66 has designated Consul66 City as its capital city, warfare increasingly resembles a video game, and a murderous reputation can revitalise a flagging celebrity career. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Consul66's national animal is the unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Consul66 is ranked 261,895th in the world and 193rd in Lower Llobregat for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring zero on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
