The Empire of NIGHTRAY is a very large, cultured nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, free-roaming dinosaurs, and state-planned economy. The cynical population of 189 million Elestrians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 56.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Elestrian economy, worth 8.90 trillion Ducals a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is 47,096 Ducals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Government agents scour baking periodicals for subversive recipes, courtrooms can be a little sketchy, police officers often conceal their identities to safeguard against public complaints, and people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. NIGHTRAY's national animal is the Alicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
NIGHTRAY is ranked 207,536th in the world and 6,726th in the South Pacific for Most Politically Free, scoring 17.71 on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
