Passorr

The Free Land of Passorr is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, complete lack of prisons, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 9.125 billion Passorrians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The minute government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, although Administration and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.

The Passorrian economy, worth 475 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 52,130 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.

The government mails weekly updates on the new anti-junk mail laws to every citizen, pregnancy tests are under fire from the government for being marketed only to women, law schools are hurrying to teach the "prank defense" to their students, and homeless people can be found sleeping on streets in front of unoccupied second homes. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Passorr's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Passorr is ranked 246,165th in the world and 484th in racoda for Lowest Crime Rates, with 53.18 law-abiding acts per hour.
