Ourangmedan

The Democratic Republic of Ourangmedan is a large, genial nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 166 million Ourangmedanese are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Ourangmedanese economy, worth 12.8 trillion Ourangmedanese Rupiyas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Average income is 77,271 Ourangmedanese Rupiyas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The police crack down on tax evaders without mercy, all mothers are allowed six months fully-paid maternity leave, a soldier's body is a temple, and charged suspects often have to wait years before the courts have room to judge their trial. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ourangmedan's national animal is the Sumatran Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ourangmedan is ranked 210,498th in the world and 1,522nd in the West Pacific for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 5,458.57 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
