The Confederacy of Proto-Techno is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and absence of drug laws. The devout population of 2.118 billion Proto-Technoans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Education. The average income tax rate is 54.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant Proto-Technoan economy, worth 36.4 trillion Thes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Cheese Exports, and Trout Farming. Average income is 17,173 Thes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Almost all of the nation's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices, a murderous reputation can revitalise a flagging celebrity career, Proto-Techno recently decided against having a capital city, and even the most lowly council pen-pusher has the same political power as a senior minister. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Proto-Techno's national animal is the The, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Proto-Techno is ranked 40,198th in the world and 2nd in Yecyma for Nicest Citizens, with 18.02 average smiles per day.
