Imperial Dispatches

Population14.224 billion

The Empire of Imperial Dispatches is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 14.224 billion Imperial Dispatchesians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 64.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Imperial Dispatchesian economy, worth a remarkable 1,535 trillion Sovereigns a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,944 Sovereigns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, the government finds the idea of having an army to be rather distasteful, the nation was recently voted as the most stylish in The Land of Kings and Emperors, and law schools are hurrying to teach the "prank defense" to their students. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Imperial Dispatches's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Imperial Dispatches is ranked 38,457th in the world and 66th in The Land of Kings and Emperors for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 5,370.15 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
