The Happiness Corporation of TheKeyToJoy is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Chad Chungus with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 8.094 billion TheKeyToJoyians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 86.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient TheKeyToJoyian economy, worth 919 trillion Keys a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 113,527 Keys, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Climate activists rejoice as electric sedans are replaced by diesel buses in gridlock, yoga studios are being converted into yoga research labs, nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, and mail and shipped goods take forever to get to buyers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TheKeyToJoy's national animal is the Joymen, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Joyism.
TheKeyToJoy is ranked 218,101st in the world and 1,803rd in the Rejected Realms for Most Conservative, scoring 46.17 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
