The 2nd Blue Moon of Philville-Rares is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its frequent executions, otherworldly petting zoo, and parental licensing program. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.593 billion Philville-Raresians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 37.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Philville-Raresian economy, worth 64.7 trillion Groats a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 40,606 Groats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Museums have more touchscreens on display than artifacts, radio stations are forbidden to play anything with too much drum or bass, a little pushing and pulling is needed for big ships to pass, and churches across the land are hurriedly installing auto-tune for their choirs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Philville-Rares's national animal is the Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Philville-Rares is ranked 300,268th in the world and 674th in Crestwood Heights for Smartest Citizens, with 16.86 quips per hour.
