Nouvelle Sainte Helene

The Principality of Nouvelle Sainte Helene is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, restrictive gun laws, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 444 million French's 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 enormous, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, with Defense, Education, and Industry also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 67.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong French economy, worth 26.6 trillion Francs a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 59,942 Francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The first test of a good kindergartener is the quality of the sponge-baths they give, Nouvelle Sainte Helene City's main city thoroughfare has been blocked by a row of leyland cypresses that mysteriously appeared overnight, Leader's Dreadnought-class tankbuster limousine is said to have more ammunition than the entire Brancalandian Army, and the number of students attending university has reached a record high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nouvelle Sainte Helene's national animal is the French jaguar, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Nouvelle Sainte Helene is ranked 38,154th in the world and 565th in the West Pacific for Most Ignorant Citizens, with 26.8 missed references per hour.
