The Psalm of Np 29 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 8.808 billion Np 29ians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 76.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Np 29ian economy, worth 554 trillion Waters a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 62,944 Waters, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized, army rations are served on silver platters, no one born in Np 29 can fix a leaky faucet, and edutainment video games are taking Np 29's students to the next level. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Np 29's national animal is the Orca, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Np 29 is ranked 52,743rd in the world and 2nd in Subreality for Lowest Crime Rates, with 73.42 law-abiding acts per hour.
