The United Socialist States of New Garlicia is a very large, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 147 million New Garlicians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 56.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but sluggish New Garlician economy, worth 2.81 trillion Garlician Lyrikis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 19,107 Garlician Lyrikis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Criminals and college students are taking an interest in the government's new weed-killing program, women mime their gynaecological symptoms with hand-puppets, the nation's government buildings are remarkable for being ugly concrete boxes, and the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Garlicia's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
New Garlicia is ranked 212,717th in the world and 4,872nd in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 49.5 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
