The Prelature Papacy of Erasticanius is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Prelature Pope Dietrich I with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, state-planned economy, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 21.256 billion Erasticans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hoodoo Falls. The average income tax rate is 96.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Erasticaniusian economy, worth a remarkable 3,202 trillion Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 150,651 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new, left-wing militias train children how to properly burn down banks, the needs of the living outweigh the needs of the dead, and teachers are dying as they attempt to read 500 word essays without pausing for breath. Crime is totally unknown. Erasticanius's national animal is the Giant Squid, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Virtual Roman Catholicism.
Erasticanius is ranked 287,178th in the world and 6th in Vatican II for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.48 kickbacks per hour.
