The Republic of -Mejiro McQueen- is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its enslaved workforce, frequent executions, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed population of 883 million -Mejiro McQueen-ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 55.5%.
The thriving -Mejiro McQueen-ian economy, worth 72.7 trillion currencies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, Cheese Exports, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 82,326 currencies, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 266,551 per year while the poor average 19,199, a ratio of 13.9 to 1.
