The Incorporated States of NSC Puppet 41 is a colossal, cultured nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, public floggings, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.087 billion NSC Puppet 41ians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. The average income tax rate is 77.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient NSC Puppet 41ian economy, worth 827 trillion cards a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 135,955 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Confessions don't count if suffixed with "izzle", consumers are free to choose - so long as they choose Eckie-Ecola or Eckie-Cola, all the world's a stage for NSC Puppet 41ian political theatrics, and open-casket funerals are avoided at all cost. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. NSC Puppet 41's national animal is the legendary, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
NSC Puppet 41 is ranked 19,741st in the world and 1,356th in Two for Lowest Crime Rates, with 89.94 law-abiding acts per hour.
