Armagedda

Population2.86 billion

The Commune of Armagedda is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.86 billion Armageddans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Armageddan economy, worth 382 trillion labour credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 133,800 labour credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new Goat Supremacy Party is faring well in the polls, student athletes gaze forlornly at abandoned goatball fields, leading ethologists are being investigated for illegal electoral interference, and cigarettes are dead-cheap. Crime is totally unknown. Armagedda's national animal is the goat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Armagedda is ranked 257,718th in the world and 8,394th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 16.23577433132 days.
