The Federation of Stoniamera is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Gabe the dog with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 11.127 billion Stoniamerans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stoniamera City. The average income tax rate is 58.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Stoniameran economy, worth a remarkable 1,150 trillion US DOLLARS a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 103,429 US DOLLARS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Children in school playgrounds can be heard chanting the hymns of the Order of Violet, nobody is forced to join the armed forces, stealing from a clothesline is a serious offence, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stoniamera's national animal is the Chicken, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Stoniamera is ranked 25,525th in the world and 1,447th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 84 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
