The Federal Republic of New Schurmina is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its frequent executions, ubiquitous missile silos, and public floggings. The hard-working population of 238 million New Schurminans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 28.7%.
The strong New Schurminan economy, worth 16.2 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 68,220 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.
Bris parties are all the rage, ceremonial zweihänders are used in holy rituals, people wouldn't be seen dead without their guns, and the nation's museums are real penny-pinchers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Schurmina's national animal is the horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
New Schurmina is ranked 233,221st in the world and 3,239th in Suspicious for Highest Workforce Participation Rate, with 58.94 Workforce Participation Rate.
