The AzurKommissarriat of New Iwate is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its public floggings, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.137 billion Azurnailians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Casablanka. The average income tax rate is 38.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The very strong New Iwatean economy, worth 89.8 trillion Azurnailian yen a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 78,963 Azurnailian yen, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Squeaky high prepubescent voices recite the patriotic poem "Hail to The Leader!" before each meal, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, chickens roam the streets freely, and graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Iwate's national animal is the Hawk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
New Iwate is ranked 74,146th in the world and 3rd in The Democratic Assembly for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 48,799.42 Standard Monetary Units.
