The People's Republic of Screams of Agony 20 is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-working, democratic population of 3.792 billion Screams of Agony 20ians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The relatively small, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid receives no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.1%.
The very strong Screams of Agony 20ian economy, worth 232 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 61,313 marks, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.
The nation's laws on image rights are amongst the strictest in the world, town welcome signs list corporate sponsors, a bill to outlaw math homework has been submitted, and concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas". Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force. Screams of Agony 20's national animal is the kangaroo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Screams of Agony 20 is ranked 247,474th in the world and 3,835th in Artificial Solar System for Most Stationary, with 19.815438707 days.
