The Bombed Wasteland of Nova Chanaan is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Ignacio Calatrava Valls with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 6.508 billion Spaniards are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Madrid. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 34.4%.
The very strong Spanish economy, worth 306 trillion pesetas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 47,052 pesetas, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.
The government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, Nova Chanaan has designated Madrid as its capital city, Ignacio Calatrava Valls has just been declared ruler of Nova Chanaan in an international press conference, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nova Chanaan's national animal is the empty.
Nova Chanaan is ranked 76,876th in the world and 1st in Standardly Uniformed Shenanigans for Most Devout, with 678.23 prayers per hour.
