The Grand Old Duchy of Ineptia is a gargantuan, genial nation, renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, compulsory military service, and public floggings. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 39.594 billion Ineptians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 60.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Ineptian economy, worth a remarkable 2,969 trillion neptoes a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 75,010 neptoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.
Teenagers across the country are celebrating the defeat of a national curfew bill, the government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of spam emails with little progress, waste is frequently shipped to other countries, and it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws. Crime is totally unknown. Ineptia's national animal is the raccoon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Ineptia is ranked 240,266th in the world and 6th in The Heartland for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring -11.83 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
