The Royaume du Nettoyage of Purgatio is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Le Grand Roi De La Fayette with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, flagrant waste-dumping, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 11.447 billion Purgations 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Auxiliora. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Purgation economy, worth a remarkable 3,132 trillion Élites a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 273,669 Élites, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,538,315 per year while the poor average 2,781, a ratio of 912 to 1.
Purgations are regularly fired for looking at MyFace during their lunch breaks, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, relatives of recent award winners find their trophies make stylish urns, and some magnifier-wielding Purgations say Le Grand Roi De La Fayette seems a little lacking in something. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Purgatio's national animal is the Vipère, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Mandatum Est.
Purgatio is ranked 6,534th in the world and 379th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 109.76 law-abiding acts per hour.
