The Republic of Radiant Armed Forces Twelve is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by General Ramses Pualani with an iron fist, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 5.254 billion Radiant Armed Forces Twelveans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beta Zone 78. The average income tax rate is 53.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The thriving Radiant Armed Forces Twelvean economy, worth 525 trillion Dáxlamic Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 100,065 Dáxlamic Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Every week is blindness awareness week, General Ramses Pualani's exquisite office door is replaced monthly due to angry petitioners, drill sergeants yell in the ears of bespectacled nerds in cybermilitary "reboot camps", and life expectancy is way down but posthuman perfectionism is way up. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Radiant Armed Forces Twelve's national animal is the Bay Mongoose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Dáxlam.
Radiant Armed Forces Twelve is ranked 89,548th in the world and 1st in Ancient Sparrow for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 52.99 Effective Tax Rate.
