The Republic of Gandalf Style is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 9.756 billion Gandalfs are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 66.3%.
The large but underdeveloped Gandalf economy, worth 319 trillion gold coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 32,717 gold coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.
Harry Potter books are banned, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, organ donation is compulsory, and hiding wrinkles with make-up is illegal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gandalf Style's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Gandalf Style is ranked 212,350th in the world and 1,990th in Hispano Germanic Alliance for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 719.71 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
