The System Megacorp of Babylon Industrial is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Ishtar Shamash with an iron fist, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, compulsory military service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 3.559 billion Babylonians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Tower. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Babylon Industrialian economy, worth 663 trillion Digits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Gambling. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 186,391 Digits, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 763,443 per year while the poor average 30,086, a ratio of 25.4 to 1.
Binoculars sales are at an all-time high, being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park, and Ishtar Shamash's office has a newly installed Max-Man arcade game programmed by a 5th-grader. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Babylon Industrial's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Babylon Industrial is ranked 144,796th in the world and 9th in Sovereign Corporate League for Most Stationary, with 181.02257858992 days.
