The Republic of Ando Izumi is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, national health service, and daily referendums. The quiet, industrious population of 4.92 billion Ando Izumians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 42.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The very strong Ando Izumian economy, worth 345 trillion pounds a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 70,256 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Recognizing the Ando Izumian flag qualifies you for citizenship, there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality, deceased politicians' MyFace profiles are unanimously pro-incumbent, and foreign leaders who don't applaud Leader's speeches are regarded as enemies of Ando Izumi. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ando Izumi's national animal is the sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Ando Izumi is ranked 82,000th in the world and 591st in Alliance of Supreme Powers for Lowest Crime Rates, with 68.32 law-abiding acts per hour.
