The Last Tribes

The Nomadic Peoples of The Last Tribes is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, rampant corporate plagiarism, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 119 million Tribesians 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 juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Last Tribesian economy, worth 2.88 trillion teeth a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 24,221 teeth, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions, a suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League, the government has spent days debating the merits of a petition calling for a ban on sporks, and traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Last Tribes's national animal is the axolotl, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

The Last Tribes is ranked 258,314th in the world and 659th in Horizon for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -5.4 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
