The Nomadic Peoples of The Asteroid Dimension is a colossal, socially progressive nation, renowned for its disturbing lack of elderly people, ubiquitous missile silos, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed population of 6.089 billion Asteroid Dimensionians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The tiny government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, although Industry, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. The average income tax rate is 8.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Asteroid Dimensionian economy, worth 293 trillion emeralds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 48,136 emeralds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on The Asteroid Dimension, scholars are leaving the country at an alarming rate, Asteroid Dimensionians have replaced bears in a popular idiom, and movies depict muscle-bound women kicking down a titanium door to carry hysterical men to safety. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. The Asteroid Dimension's national animal is the asteroid.
The Asteroid Dimension is ranked 317,292nd in the world and 5th in Fraecia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -8.62 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
