The People's Republic of SkillCrossbones is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Jon Fairbanks with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory vegetarianism, hatred of cheese, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 40.739 billion SkillCrossbonesians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sheffield. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient SkillCrossbonesian economy, worth a remarkable 9,538 trillion Simoleons 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an amazing 234,146 Simoleons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities, a shipwreck is everyone's fault but the captain's, mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, and anyone who so much as frowns risks being referred to a mental health unit. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SkillCrossbones's national animal is the Cardinal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
SkillCrossbones is ranked 293,560th in the world and 380th in The Leftist Assembly for Highest Disposable Incomes, with zero Standard Monetary Units.
