Nuttsville

The Republic of Nuttsville is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 22.46 billion Nuttsvilleans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Social Policy. The average income tax rate is 80.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Nuttsvillean economy, worth 298 trillion Euros a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 13,297 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voting is compulsory, high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, the government is avowedly atheist, and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nuttsville's national animal is the Squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nuttsville is ranked 47,972nd in the world and 2,310th in Osiris for Safest, scoring 103.35 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
