The Calmari Collective Capacity of Squid Ruinosa is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by The Beakest with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, triple-decker prams, and devotion to social welfare. The quiet, industrious population of 23.658 billion Squod are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greater moon spire. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.
The powerhouse Squinem economy, worth a remarkable 3,350 trillion pointy Beaks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 141,634 pointy Beaks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Pocket calculators are seen as status symbols for the ostentatiously wealthy, years of counter-terrorism planning are foiled by small details, small towns have started burning historical buildings in hopes of attracting tourists, and wilderness-dwelling hermits are surprised to find railway stations on their front doorsteps. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Squid Ruinosa's national animal is the Lesser Squiden, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Octodox.
Squid Ruinosa is ranked 21,237th in the world and 1,068th in The East Pacific for Most Income Equality, scoring 78.3 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
