Turning Point Two

The Mushoku Tensei of Turning Point Two is a mammoth, efficient nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 5.079 billion Turning Point Twoans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid is ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 51.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Turning Point Twoan economy, worth 677 trillion Currencies 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 an impressive 133,449 Currencies, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 399,751 per year while the poor average 34,819, a ratio of 11.5 to 1.

The nation solves other countries' human rights problems with a generous dose of violence, legislators work 24/7 due to an influx of single-issue bills, citizens are exhausted from weekly general elections, and employees who skip lunch to avoid sub-par cafeteria food risk getting fired. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Turning Point Two's national animal is the Animal, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Turning Point Two is ranked 308,771st in the world and 27th in Anime for Highest Drug Use, scoring 12.51 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
