The Archbishopric of Twente is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Archbishop Gerhardus Janman with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 45.692 billion Tubantians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Spirituality and Education are also considered important, while Environment and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eanske. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Tubantian economy, worth an astonishing 31,280 trillion Marks a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is a breathtaking 684,604 Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.
Family bonding sessions are considered immoral and are banned, curtailed social programs have left many citizens bereft of any safety net, children asking questions about science are referred to relevant sections in religious texts, and naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Twente's national animal is the Steed, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Saxon Catholicism.
Twente is ranked 758th in the world and 5th in Europe for Most Stationary, with 5,032.7051124 days.
