The Federation of Circinus is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Legate Calvin McIntyre with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 3.878 billion Circinians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.
The tiny, pro-business government prioritizes Spirituality, with Defense and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cirion. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.8%.
The very strong Circinian economy, worth 263 trillion thalers a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 67,974 thalers, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 246,478 per year while the poor average 13,358, a ratio of 18.5 to 1.
Legate Calvin McIntyre has just been declared ruler of Circinus in an international press conference, Tellurism has been named as Circinus's national religion, the arms industry is strictly regulated, and the weather in Cirion is always 'pigeons with a chance of droppings'. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Circinus's national animal is the fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Tellurism.
Circinus is ranked 231,412th in the world and 42nd in The Local Cluster for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 184.73 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
