The Empire of The Promethean Fists is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Heino Berezin with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, free-roaming dinosaurs, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 26.928 billion Prometheans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pyros. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Promethean economy, worth a remarkable 5,818 trillion Cogs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 216,062 Cogs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,120,511 per year while the poor average 22,573, a ratio of 49.6 to 1.
Dubiously qualified Skandilundian barristers keep referring to laws as 'government guidelines', heretic deviants are free to practice their deviance outside of The Promethean Fists, constituents prefer a carrot and boomstick approach to dealing with politicians, and shanty towns are forming in the suburbs of major cities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The Promethean Fists's national animal is the Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is the Cult of Iron.
The Promethean Fists is ranked 266,025th in the world and 82nd in Texas for Safest, scoring 9.31 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
