Sack Frestan

The Empire of Sack Frestan is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, digital currency, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.769 billion Sack Frestanians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 89.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Sack Frestanian economy, worth 292 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 165,487 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Religious bigotry and a fear of outsiders have replaced religious studies in schools, going on a diet invalidates your passport, bad punctuation has come to a full stop, and physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sack Frestan's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Sack Frestan is ranked 42,688th in the world and 554th in the Pacific for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,456.58 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
