Sturmtrooper17

The Federal Republic of Sturmtrooper17 is a massive, pleasant nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, soft-spoken computers, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed population of 1.222 billion Sturmtrooper17ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The relatively small, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 15.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Sturmtrooper17ian economy, worth 61.1 trillion rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 49,996 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', courses in how to boil water are popular for formerly microwave-reliant Sturmtrooper17ians, consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, and the weather report is the prisoners' favourite programme. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sturmtrooper17's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Sturmtrooper17 is ranked 231,164th in the world and 183rd in Warzone Galactica for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -7 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
