The Republic of Rangarang is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 581 million Rangarangians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.
The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.6%.
The very strong Rangarangian economy, worth 29.6 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 50,871 dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 237,992 per year while the poor average 6,496, a ratio of 36.6 to 1.
Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Rangarang's national animal is the squirrel, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Rangarang is ranked 142,939th in the world and 6th in Island Region for Most Armed, with 0.3 Weapons Per Person.
