The Cyan-Depleted Cartridges of Printer71 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, anti-smoking policies, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 7.137 billion Printer71ians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 93.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Printer71ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,045 trillion cards a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 146,547 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
Books are considered luxuries only available to the incredibly wealthy, the nation's hospitals are criticized for caring more about profits than patients, political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, and the criminal underworld is awash with sausage smuggling. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Printer71's national animal is the legendary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Printer71 is ranked 13,068th in the world and 490th in Two for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 9,798.6 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
