The Republic of Panzer Vor 19 is a massive, pleasant nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, devout population of 3.552 billion Panzer Vor 19ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The enormous, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Education also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 65.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but inefficient Panzer Vor 19ian economy, worth 147 trillion bitcoins 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 Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Trout Farming, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. 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 41,396 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, hordes of unemployed lumberjacks have resorted to cutting down utility poles to satisfy their cravings, war vets look after war animals, and weird kids who eat bugs are breaking the law. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Panzer Vor 19's national animal is the kangaroo.
Panzer Vor 19 is ranked 70,033rd in the world and 692nd in Artificial Solar System for Most Patriotic, with 25.82 flags saluted per person per day.
