Emporer Constantine

The Crushing Justice of Emporer Constantine is a titanic, safe nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 14.512 billion Emporer Constantineans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Environment, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 76.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Emporer Constantinean economy, worth 106 trillion soliduses 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, highly specialized black market in Furniture Restoration, Soda Sales, and Book Publishing. 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 7,373 soliduses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cars are banned, all industry is owned and run by the government, gambling is outlawed, and voting is voluntary. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Emporer Constantine's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Emporer Constantine is ranked 304,990th in the world and 5th in HYDRA Command for Most Developed, scoring 42.2 on the Human Development Index.
