The Democratic Republic of Shengi land is a small, genial nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and compulsory military service. The hard-working, devout population of 26 million Shengi landians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.9%.
The strong Shengi landian economy, worth 1.63 trillion US DOLLARS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Gambling, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 62,551 US DOLLARS, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.
The Shengi Land City XV Regiment (aka "The Goat Starers") have yet to win a battle, billions are being spent on a new island airport, the government spends twice as much reclaiming lost settlements from the sea as it could've on coastal defences, and official maps have to be revised on a weekly basis. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Shengi land's national animal is the UNICORT, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Shengi land is ranked 36,313th in the world and 9th in Enowiden for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 5,677.79 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
