The Puppet that Controls Others of NKBpuppet1 is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by General Zhe Tang with an even hand, and renowned for its strictly enforced bedtime, keen interest in outer space, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 4.263 billion Kowloonis are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New New Miltonford. The average income tax rate is 43.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse NKBpuppet1ian economy, worth 497 trillion Bay Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 116,719 Bay Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.
Airport users are more worried about radiation than terrorism, motorbike jousters live young and die fast, songs of praise to General Zhe Tang are filled with coded messages from the resistance, and the finest dining experience in NKBpuppet1 is chakra-infused grass. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. NKBpuppet1's national animal is the Tumbling Solar Mare, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
NKBpuppet1 is ranked 218,766th in the world and 71st in Kowloon for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -3.02 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
