The Great Ledger

Population114 million

The Kingdom of The Great Ledger is a large, genial nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, aversion to nipples, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 114 million Great Ledgerians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 40.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Great Ledgerian economy, worth 8.00 trillion Yen a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 70,143 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The streets are ravaged by murder and violence to prove political points, jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, new government leaflets tell coeliac children to eat more crisps, and the new one Yen coin also makes a handy throwing-star. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Great Ledger's national animal is the Kitty, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The Great Ledger is ranked 69,242nd in the world and 521st in Europe for Highest Poor Incomes, with 43,156.32 Standard Monetary Units.
