Mar Vers

Population110 million

The United States of Mar Vers is a large, cultured nation, notable for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 110 million Mar Versians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.9%.

The all-consuming Mar Versian economy, worth 10.7 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 97,207 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 326,791 per year while the poor average 21,440, a ratio of 15.2 to 1.

The government's approval ratings go down while its turnover rate goes up, crowded passenger trains are near-silent save for the soft tap of fingers on touchscreens, immigrants who don't like the taste of Mar Versian Turnip Chips are immediately deported, and vaccinations are mandatory. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mar Vers's national animal is the leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Mar Vers is ranked 233,935th in the world and 1,913th in the West Pacific for Least Corrupt Governments, with 91.83 percentage of bribes refused.
