The State of Joseph Ratzinger is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by High Commissioner with an iron fist, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, prohibition of alcohol, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 40.083 billion Joseph Ratzingerians 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dominion Heights. The average income tax rate is 91.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Joseph Ratzingerian economy, worth a remarkable 3,135 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 78,221 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Protest songs are the nation's de facto anthems, betting pennies on games of Go Fish is considered deviant, the military patrols the streets in search of possible secessionists, and urban graffiti is hand-calligraphed in perfectly kerned elegant fonts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Joseph Ratzinger's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Joseph Ratzinger is ranked 23,431st in the world and 6th in 0000 for Lowest Crime Rates, with 87.07 law-abiding acts per hour.
