The Republic of 799 is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, zero percent divorce rate, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 690 million 799ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.6%.
The all-consuming 799ian economy, worth 68.0 trillion currencies a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,527 currencies, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 289,525 per year while the poor average 26,415, a ratio of 11.0 to 1.
The nation's interest in space is at an all-time high while interest in saving the planet is at an all-time low, citizens with artificial limbs are forbidden to serve as beauty pageant judges, returning vacationers often find that their property is now a construction site, and an exhibition on animal memes is currently starring at the National Art Gallery. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 799's national animal is the animal, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
799 is ranked 266,426th in the world and 225th in Charleslandia for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 38.75 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
