The Drifting Deity

The Theocracy of The Drifting Deity is a large, safe nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 88 million Eternal Faithful are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 54.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Eternal Faithful economy, worth 2.77 trillion Solo Sigils a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 31,534 Solo Sigils, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Shanty towns of homeless immigrants are the ideal recruiting ground for terrorist organisations, belligerent citizens shoot at passing clouds for 'violating their airspace', the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, and all footpaths have tollbooths. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Drifting Deity's national animal is the Temporal Fox.

The Drifting Deity is ranked 127,802nd in the world and 4th in UNGA for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 74.43 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
