The United Socialist States of IWCA 035 is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its closed borders, parental licensing program, and state-planned economy. The quiet, industrious population of 756 million IWCA 035ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The medium-sized, moralistic, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid is ignored. The average income tax rate is 39.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient IWCA 035ian economy, worth 31.1 trillion rupees 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, quite specialized black market in Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. 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 41,092 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Leader has just been declared ruler of IWCA 035 in an international press conference, foreign policy is mostly just to smile and hope for the best, cinemas play art-house movies to ever-shrinking audiences as film critics rule the industry, and the masses are surrendering their civil liberties without complaint for the sake of shopping convenience. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. IWCA 035's national animal is the crocodile, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
IWCA 035 is ranked 123,276th in the world and 6th in Herd United for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 1,528.55 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
