The Empire of Forcefully Controlled State of Iberia is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, barren, inhospitable landscape, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 803 million Iberians 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 28.8%.
The thriving Iberian economy, worth 64.9 trillion Leons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 80,790 Leons, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 261,579 per year while the poor average 18,841, a ratio of 13.9 to 1.
Satellite images show safe electoral constituencies in complete darkness, there's a literal nanny state for the legions of children taken by social services, orthopaedics patients often have a bounce in their step, and a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Forcefully Controlled State of Iberia's national animal is the Condor, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Forcefully Controlled State of Iberia is ranked 260,164th in the world and 7th in Anarchic Lands for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -7.59 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
