Amendment 20

The Republic of Amendment 20 is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 221 million Amendment 20ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 68.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Amendment 20ian economy, worth 4.22 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 19,107 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amendment 20's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Amendment 20 is ranked 299,401st in the world and 5th in 27 Amendments for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -10.77 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
