The Empire of Clton 4 is a huge, cultured nation, renowned for its daily referendums, state-planned economy, and frequent executions. The quiet, industrious population of 773 million Clton 4ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 44.2%.
The strong Clton 4ian economy, worth 47.3 trillion aureas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Woodchip Exports, Tourism, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 61,186 aureas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.
The nation's police officers are famously miserable-looking, a bill to outlaw math homework has been submitted, there has been a rapid increase of noise complaints over the sound of buzzing bees, and funding for education has been redirected into the military. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Clton 4's national animal is the Rattlesnake.
Clton 4 is ranked 180,869th in the world and 3,438th in the Rejected Realms for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 34,142.22 Standard Monetary Units.
