The Chaos of Great Cow Race is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Granny with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.982 billion Bones 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valley. The average income tax rate is 86.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Cow economy, worth a remarkable 2,371 trillion golds 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Retail. 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 an amazing 264,041 golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Propaganda and Partisanship 101 is a required class all political candidates must pass before being nominated by their chosen party, a sledgehammer and a spray can are seen as the default tools of political debate, shoppers insist that instruction labels exempt their purchases from VAT, and every noble family has a 'personal file' on record courtesy of the central intelligence service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Great Cow Race's national animal is the stupid stupid rat creatures, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.
