The Principality of Smidtia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Mister Smith with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, complete lack of prisons, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 11.195 billion Smidtians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 85.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Smidtian economy, worth 871 trillion Lorns a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,885 Lorns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The constant playing of Merry Birthday on Smidtian radio has led to calls for the song to be classified as a crime against humanity, traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, contemporary art museums showcase the latest in centuries-old art, and it takes a village to catch a criminal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Smidtia's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Smidtia is ranked 138,873rd in the world and 1st in Adaven for Most Stationary, with 217.28873593512 days.
