The City of Tilburg is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 25.566 billion Tilburgers enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.
The tiny government is primarily concerned with Industry, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.5%.
The thriving Tilburger economy, worth 733 trillion guilders a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 28,688 guilders, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.
Voting is compulsory. Crime is a serious problem. Tilburg's national animal is the lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Tilburg is ranked 220,963rd in the world and 34th in Cities for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring zero on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
