United Normal Ducks

Population241 million

CurrencyDucky Dollars
AnimalNormal Duck

The Democratic Republic of United Normal Ducks is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 241 million Duckies are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Welfare, Law & Order, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 57.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Ducky economy, worth 11.4 trillion Ducky Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,226 Ducky Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is spending more on exports to Brasilistan than it's receiving from tariffs on the imports, soldiers are now trained how to make sandwiches properly, a flying elephant and Leader share the same nickname, and one can wake up in United Normal Ducks and have breakfast in Bigtopia. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United Normal Ducks's national animal is the Normal Duck, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

United Normal Ducks is ranked 186,832nd in the world and 7,652nd in Chicken overlords for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 48.73 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
