The Democratic Republic of Congo-Kinsasa is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Joseph Kabila with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 2.61 billion Congolese are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kinshasa. The average income tax rate is 9.4%.

The all-consuming Congolese economy, worth 226 trillion zaires a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 86,855 zaires, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

EULAs remind customers that "Private Mode" is a browser setting rather than a promise, the fattest folk in Congo-Kinsasa look to be the happiest ones, politicians are losing their jobs in a plan to make the government 'leaner and fitter', and sports club owners are having a moneyball. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Congo-Kinsasa's national animal is the Okapi, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Congo-Kinsasa is ranked 93,503rd in the world and 14th in Greater Middle East for Highest Workforce Participation Rate, with 72.77 Workforce Participation Rate.
