The Mountain Song of Dwarf is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Fáfnir Longbeard with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, complete lack of prisons, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 7.538 billion Dwarves are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dwarf Fortress. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Dwarfen economy, worth a remarkable 2,686 trillion ores a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 356,430 ores, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,193,551 per year while the poor average 5,122, a ratio of 623 to 1.
