The Dominion of Rephooddeat is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 670 million Rephooddeatians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Spirituality, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.6%.
The powerhouse Rephooddeatian economy, worth 62.3 trillion gold coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 92,911 gold coins, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 536,767 per year while the poor average 7,673, a ratio of 70.0 to 1.
Newly-peaceful nations are forced to use assault rifles as farming tools due to a lack of funds for purchasing anything else, tough diplomacy is often best handled with a nutcracker, students learn how to disarm mines before understanding basic arithmetic, and children use fake IDs to purchase candy. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force. Rephooddeat's national animal is the wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Rephooddeat is ranked 76,498th in the world and 198th in Concord for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 3,752.17 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
