The General Union of Standard Industrial Combined States is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Director of Operations with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, compulsory military service, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 25.081 billion Variklyns are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of General Industrial Area No 1. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Varikly economy, worth a remarkable 4,889 trillion SITMS a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 194,949 SITMS, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,789,305 per year while the poor average 2,227, a ratio of 803 to 1.
The nation's new Mylab space station is notorious for being the loneliest place above the planet, future leaders of Standard Industrial Combined States regularly dismiss pressing political issues when available options don't conform to their worldview, hedge fund managers are diversifying into herbaceous borders, and invasive species are hunted by the gendarmerie. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Standard Industrial Combined States's national animal is the Donkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Standard Industrial Combined States is ranked 37,756th in the world and 330th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 1,209.021448448 days.
