The Oppressed Peoples of Ansouwotoipi is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical, devout population of 6.509 billion Ansouwotoipians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 67.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but stagnant Ansouwotoipian economy, worth 111 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Pizza Delivery, Retail, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 17,203 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Leader has just been declared ruler of Ansouwotoipi in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ansouwotoipi's national animal is the Eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.
Ansouwotoipi is ranked 102,421st in the world and 819th in Artificial Solar System for Largest Governments, scoring 16.43 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
