The Dictatorship of Sher Preerria is a small, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 45 million Sherites are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 44.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The strong Sher economy, worth 2.42 trillion souls a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 53,746 souls, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
Peace talks occasionally rack up a higher body count than the wars they seek to stop, glancing at the car radio display while driving is treated as attempted homicide, the military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, and carpet bombing has decimated Brasilistan's landscape and population. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sher Preerria's national animal is the sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Sher Preerria is ranked 62,477th in the world and 359th in The Communist Bloc for Most Patriotic, with 22.57 flags saluted per person per day.
