The Mercantile Realm of Fepreodan is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.366 billion Fepreodanis are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. The average income tax rate is 16.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Fepreodanian economy, worth 198 trillion pelts 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. 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 59,003 pelts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
It's best not to ask what goes into Fepreodan City Fried Chicken's secret blend of herbs and spices, heavily-armed commandos play rock-paper-scissors over whether to execute criminals and foreign visitors, military spending is on the increase, and expectant parents view twins with equal parts joy and suspicion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fepreodan's national animal is the horse.
Fepreodan is ranked 155,656th in the world and 2,154th in The East Pacific for Most Stationary, with 142.08995767348 days.
