The Black Swan Hegemony of Christ Triumphant is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Cadmus Maculatus with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, sprawling nuclear power plants, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 7.159 billion Black Monks are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Goliath Bluffs. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Black Swan economy, worth a remarkable 2,617 trillion marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 365,612 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Workers tend to schedule naps during all-hands meetings, children are raised bilingual from an early age, the daily weather forecast often predicts light showers of debris, and a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Christ Triumphant's national animal is the Black Swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Midnight Priory.
Christ Triumphant is ranked 162,950th in the world and 13th in The Horde for Largest Black Market, with 94.2 billion Standard Monetary Units.
