Cosmonin

The Commonwealth of Cosmonin is a huge, genial nation, notable for its national health service, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 691 million Cosmonians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 65.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Cosmoninian economy, worth 57.0 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 82,420 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The installation of street lights across remote goat tracks has left citizens bemused, concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas", citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, and the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cosmonin's national animal is the Red Rabbit, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Cosmonin is ranked 20,638th in the world and 1st in Euravia for Safest, scoring 113.15 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
