Borochovia

Population175 million

The Community of Borochovia is a very large, genial nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 175 million Borochovians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Welfare, and Administration also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 67.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Borochovian economy, worth 3.09 trillion dovs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 17,643 dovs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bored politicians often entertain themselves with games of Simon during important votes, vaccinations are mandatory, a weakened police force struggles to maintain law and order, and trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Borochovia's national animal is the bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Borochovia is ranked 22,632nd in the world and 4th in Jerusalem for Nicest Citizens, with 21.52 average smiles per day.
