The National Bolsheviks of Blizzardian Empire is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Nazbol Nastasia with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, otherworldly petting zoo, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 13.392 billion Soviets 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moscow. The average income tax rate is 16.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Soviet economy, worth a remarkable 1,982 trillion Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 148,059 Rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.
The government is purchasing vast amounts of palm oil for plastics production, politicians are fired for opening subjective statements with "I believe", teachers regularly paddle unruly students, and hit and run driving is no longer a crime - it's the national sport. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Blizzardian Empire's national animal is the Blizzard, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Blizzardian Empire is ranked 9,046th in the world and 711th in Balder for Most Corrupt Governments, with 163.95 kickbacks per hour.
