The Republic of Mantella is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by High Chancellor Tito Vero with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, avant-garde cinema, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 14.786 billion Mantellans 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Modena. The average income tax rate is 97.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Mantellan economy, worth a remarkable 2,517 trillion Lindas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 170,249 Lindas, with the richest citizens earning 7.3 times as much as the poorest.
The government invades its allies more than its enemies, endangered bison are herded across the border to prevent them from trampling on native prairie grass, popular websites like NationStates are blocked for "national security", and bus shelters seem to be designed to let rain in. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mantella's national animal is the mantella, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Mantellan Catholicism.
Mantella is ranked 103,517th in the world and 122nd in Eurth for Safest, scoring 81.51 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
