Duck Fighter

The Republic of Duck Fighter is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, daily referendums, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed population of 1.277 billion Duck Fighters are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 64.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Duck economy, worth 84.1 trillion Duckcoins 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. 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 65,863 Duckcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians and casino owners who so much as wander into the same room are arrested on the spot, public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers, colonists who were promised new lands find only war-torn devastation, and the first sword of Duck Fighter does not run. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Duck Fighter's national animal is the Duck.

Duck Fighter is ranked 81,610th in the world and 504th in Artificial Solar System for Largest Governments, scoring 18.3 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
