The Island of Sicilia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Don Corleone with an iron fist, and renowned for its parental licensing program, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 22.804 billion Sicilians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Palermo. The average income tax rate is 81.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Sicilian economy, worth a remarkable 2,081 trillion Lire a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 91,297 Lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
The Sicilian Intelligence Agency has put 'Project Quantum Refrigerator' on hold indefinitely, old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, people boast about their low income on their dating profiles, and virtual assistants are seen with increasing suspicion every time they get an upgrade. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sicilia's national animal is the Olive, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cosa Nostra.
Sicilia is ranked 233,842nd in the world and 7,193rd in Balder for Most Stationary, with 23.15535323612 days.
