Animal | Wolf |
The Holy Empire of The Democratic Peoples Empire of Antioch is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its smutty television, public floggings, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.234 billion Democratic Peoples Empire of Antiochians 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 85.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Democratic Peoples Empire of Antiochian economy, worth 112 trillion Denarii 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 major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 91,499 Denarii, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Citizens have to dodge their neighbors' drones while getting the morning paper, news headlines suggest that Leader has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, group hugs break out during floor votes, and not showing enough enthusiasm for mutual assured destruction is a court-martial offence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Democratic Peoples Empire of Antioch's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
The Democratic Peoples Empire of Antioch is ranked 14,011th in the world and 849th in Osiris for Safest, scoring 117.23 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
