The My Age of 37 is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, complete lack of prisons, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 23.02 billion 37ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.1%.
The frighteningly efficient 37ian economy, worth a remarkable 3,913 trillion Golds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 170,025 Golds, with the richest citizens earning 6.7 times as much as the poorest.
Engineers ask liberal arts majors "Do you want fries with that?", vets have been drafted in to help "fix" those who fail the parental license exam, fish with fish chips have become the new 37ian food staple, and citizens queue to get the reinstated bank notes and coins. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 37's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
37 is ranked 27,511th in the world and 1,850th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 84.26 law-abiding acts per hour.
