The Armed Republic of Kongerbia is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, public floggings, and frequent executions. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.365 billion Kongerbians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 74.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Kongerbian economy, worth 130 trillion Kongs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is 95,323 Kongs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
There's a hole in the heart of every Kongerbian city, women wearing male lounge-wear are quizzed for hours by mental health practitioners, Kongerbia is suspiciously populated compared to its neighbors, and UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kongerbia's national animal is the bloodfaced Monkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Kongerbia is ranked 271,508th in the world and 10,460th in Balder for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -8.27 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
