The Femocratic Republic of Goldstone is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Patty with an iron fist, and notable for its national health service, public floggings, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.793 billion Goldstoneans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vamari. The average income tax rate is 49.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The thriving Goldstonean economy, worth 139 trillion lire a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,852 lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Careless Maxémon Trainers have been the cause of numerous search and rescue operations, insanely good theatre productions face government censorship, the government spends millions of tax lire on vouchers to pay for expensive private schools, and the regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Goldstone's national animal is the fox.
Goldstone is ranked 38,524th in the world and 65th in Refugia for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 4,251.58 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
