Army of Pleasant

The Republic of Army of Pleasant is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate population of 2.263 billion Army of Pleasantians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 28.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Army of Pleasantian economy, worth 102 trillion marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Retail, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 45,157 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Student athletes gaze forlornly at abandoned kiwiball fields, the new airport at Mr. Giles' farm is panicking his sheep, prominent cultural symbols are featured on the backs of cereal boxes, and banning party poppers has been a real party pooper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Army of Pleasant's national animal is the kiwi, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Army of Pleasant is ranked 64,340th in the world and 3,841st in Lazarus for Nicest Citizens, with 16.29 average smiles per day.
