The Peculiar Paradise of The Backwardest Nation You Know is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Prime Reflector Janora Niffoni with a fair hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.237 billion Backwardians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Environment, and Administration also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Reversia. The average income tax rate is 98.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Backwardian economy, worth a remarkable 1,310 trillion Backits a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 181,067 Backits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with Prime Reflector Janora Niffoni, weather forecasts are accurate but nobody has the bandwidth to view them, armed war-criminals gain asylum if deemed 'fabulous' enough, and immigrants who carry knives on them are presumed to be chefs. Crime is totally unknown. The Backwardest Nation You Know's national animal is the Snow Dragonfly, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
The Backwardest Nation You Know is ranked 2,888th in the world and 60th in The East Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 221 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
