The Matriarchy of Puppet State 324 is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, restrictive gun laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 3.977 billion Puppet State 324ians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.7%.
The strong Puppet State 324ian economy, worth 207 trillion rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 52,273 rubles, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 276,233 per year while the poor average 5,253, a ratio of 52.6 to 1.
TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and a recent "genocide prevention" campaign includes murdering children based on their DNA. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Puppet State 324's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Puppet State 324 is ranked 186,026th in the world and 33rd in Silly for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
