The Republic of Curative Agent 79 is a massive, safe nation, notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, avowedly heterosexual populace, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.349 billion Curative Agent 79ians 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, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 35.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Curative Agent 79ian economy, worth 49.6 trillion Credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 36,740 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.
The new Liquor Legitimacy Office is besieged with job applications from people who have experience in "statistical sampling methods", the experimental sculpture "Overtures In Dried Trout Dung" has been declared a national treasure, former bars are desperately trying to re-brand themselves as cafés, and search and rescue forces now accept cheques and all major credit cards. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Curative Agent 79's national animal is the Trout, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Curative Agent 79 is ranked 160,656th in the world and 228th in Blue Chevron for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 787.01 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
