The People's Republic of Orangutangus Mustangus is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its digital currency, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 924 million Orangutangus Mustangusians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moby Dick. The average income tax rate is 74.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Orangutangus Mustangusian economy, worth 85.6 trillion bananas 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 92,610 bananas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Military officials are questioning the policy of ceding the nation's territory in exchange for promises not to invade it, confessions don't count if suffixed with "izzle", elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, and victims of limb-mauling industrial accidents are told to keep working with their remaining hand. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orangutangus Mustangus's national animal is the oranguntan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Orangutangus Mustangus is ranked 24,740th in the world and 20th in Socialists for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 7,167.28 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
