The Republic of Nkbpuppet52 is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, fear of technology, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 4.139 billion Nkbpuppet52ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 68.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Nkbpuppet52ian economy, worth 583 trillion nkbs 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. 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 an impressive 140,892 nkbs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.
Cars are banned, escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', the government is paving paradises to put up parking lots, and top-shelf magazines feature risqué centrefold spreads of ladies' wrists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nkbpuppet52's national animal is the NKB, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Nkbpuppet52 is ranked 37,366th in the world and 28th in Kowloon for Lowest Crime Rates, with 78.84 law-abiding acts per hour.
