The Queendom of Raspberry Estonia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, keen interest in outer space, and compulsory military service. The cynical population of 1.065 billion Estonians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 10.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Estonian economy, worth 54.4 trillion Rasps a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,050 Rasps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly, stores employing more than 100 employees are required to be at least twenty miles from any competitor, bureaucrats close new businesses for not complying with the Penguin Packaging Index, and every diamond ring sold is accompanied by a twenty-five page analysis and a waiver. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Raspberry Estonia's national animal is the White-Fronted Goose, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Raspberry Estonia is ranked 25,006th in the world and 3rd in The order of magnissia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 6,169.7 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
