The Republic of Mddigcrkds is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.202 billion Mddigcrkdsians 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, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 63.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Mddigcrkdsian economy, worth 352 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 110,230 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The ongoing space elevator construction project has elevated the national debt to all new levels, the government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups, the police crack down on tax evaders without mercy, and promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mddigcrkds's national animal is the parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Mddigcrkds is ranked 82,025th in the world and 175th in Sophia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 3,503.01 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
