Socialist Union of Maharlika

Population252 million

The Republic of Socialist Union of Maharlika is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 252 million Maharlikans 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, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bastio. The average income tax rate is 55.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Maharlikan economy, worth 21.3 trillion Maharlikan Pesos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 84,716 Maharlikan Pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The government is continually probing the galaxy in search of alien life, Socialist Union of Maharlika has designated Bastio as its capital city, gun ownership is compulsory, and Occam's razor has sliced to pieces any childhood belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Socialist Union of Maharlika's national animal is the Buffalo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Socialist Union of Maharlika is ranked 164,282nd in the world and 274th in Conch Kingdom for Fattest Citizens, with 9.42 Obesity Rate.
