The Devotion of Midnight Prayer is a massive, safe nation, notable for its pith helmet sales, restrictive gun laws, and suspicion of poets. The quiet, industrious population of 2.843 billion Midnight Prayerians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The medium-sized, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, with Administration and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid is ignored. The average income tax rate is 41.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The large but inefficient Midnight Prayerian economy, worth 126 trillion golds a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 44,659 golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Travelers often bring empty plastic bottles on Air Midnight Prayer flights to avoid the pay lavatories, escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', the average video game can be completed over lunch break, and litter collection has replaced fast food as the most popular after-school job. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Midnight Prayer's national animal is the dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Midnight Prayer is ranked 126,637th in the world and 1,491st in Artificial Solar System for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 41.35 Effective Tax Rate.
