Dankzig

The Free Land of Dankzig is a mid-sized, socially progressive nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion and absence of drug laws. The democratic population of 95 million Dankzigers hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and International Aid. The average income tax rate is 33.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Dankziger economy, worth 3.89 trillion greens a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 40,981 greens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Religious turf wars have caused frustrated police to pray for divine intervention, employers are never quite sure if graduates' qualifications have any merit or meaning, mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation, and the secret ingredient is love (and MSG). Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Dankzig's national animal is the ganjalope, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Dankzig is ranked 112,781st in the world and 80th in Canada for Highest Poor Incomes, with 27,909.67 Standard Monetary Units.
