The Republic of Beauvais is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 353 million Beauvaisiens are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The relatively small, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Defense, Administration, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.3%.
The very strong Beauvaisien economy, worth 18.9 trillion francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 53,662 francs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 159,556 per year while the poor average 14,149, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.
It is illegal to make racist remarks in public, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, Harry Potter books are banned, and conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Beauvais's national animal is the lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Beauvais is ranked 198,119th in the world and 21st in Cities for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 675.75 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
