The Love you all 💖 of Grandfather Clock is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Grand Clocksmith with an even hand, and renowned for its teetotalling pirates, enslaved workforce, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 8.867 billion Grandfather Clocks are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Industry, although Healthcare, Public Transport, and Environment are also considered important, while Welfare and Administration aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Clockworks Central. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.0%.
The frighteningly efficient a Grandfather Clock economy, worth 755 trillion verges a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Cheese Exports industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 85,228 verges, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 563,418 per year while the poor average 4,975, a ratio of 113 to 1.
Footballers are doing aerobics in the sauna to build their hot weather endurance, the elderly are killed softly with a song, religious figures have been banned from public holidays to make them more multicultural, and female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Grandfather Clock's national animal is the pendulum, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is punctuality.
Grandfather Clock is ranked 293,012th in the world and 1,262nd in Europeia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 4.61 law-abiding acts per hour.
