The People's Republic of Curate is a very large, orderly nation, notable for its museums and concert halls and state-planned economy. The cynical, devout population of 102 million Curateans are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Education. The average income tax rate is 25.1%.
The sizeable but inefficient Curatean economy, worth 5.57 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Basket Weaving, Tourism, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 54,646 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.
Produce labels read 'may contain traces of food', army rations are served on silver platters, at least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to Leader's wardrobe, and red fabric is banned. Crime is totally unknown. Curate's national animal is the Lamb.
Curate is ranked 196,603rd in the world and 148th in Christians for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 25.07 Effective Tax Rate.
