The United Mangrove Archipelago of Ransium is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Scipio with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 31.645 billion Ransites are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The medium-sized government prioritizes Environment, although Healthcare, Social Policy, and Industry are also considered important, while Education and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mangrove City. The average income tax rate is 97.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Ransiumian economy, worth a remarkable 6,696 trillion Cloyns a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 211,617 Cloyns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Where there's smoke there's the Ransiumian Forestry Department, over a third of the seats in sports stadiums have been removed to make room for female-only commodes, nobody brings rolls of coins to the laundromat anymore, and all transmission towers have been temporarily diverted in order to establish dialogue with a comet. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Ransium's national animal is the Tiger Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Mangrovism.
Ransium is ranked 245,448th in the world and 485th in Forest for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -76.28 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
