The Solipsism Syndrome of Homer Simpsien is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its anti-smoking policies, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 29.247 billion Homer Simpsienians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — prioritizes Education, although Welfare, Social Policy, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. The average income tax rate is 74.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The Homer Simpsienian economy, worth a remarkable 1,000 trillion Homers 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, highly specialized black market in Book Publishing and Tourism. 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 34,221 Homers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Legislators work 24/7 due to an influx of single-issue bills, citizens are regularly found digging for treasure in their gardens, radio shows frequently feature people denouncing religion, and teachers are routinely tested to keep their jobs. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Homer Simpsien's national animal is the Snowball, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lovejoy.
Homer Simpsien is ranked 78,256th in the world and 12th in Ireland for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 4,147.48 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
