The Migrant Entrepot of Awesome Break-Away of 250land is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Committee of Public Safety with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 20.578 billion 250landers 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Asterix. The average income tax rate is 83.4%.
The powerhouse Awesome Break-Away of 250landian economy, worth a remarkable 2,260 trillion Nation States Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal.
