The Republic of Stess is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Abi🍹 with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, pith helmet sales, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 1.493 billion Stessians 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 relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of 🌺City-state of Kandora🌃. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 35.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Stessian economy, worth 349 trillion franc🏛s a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 233,957 franc🏛s, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 748,887 per year while the poor average 55,482, a ratio of 13.5 to 1.
Stessians refer to transgender people with insults instead of pronouns, muscular women are banned from competing in sporting competitions, things are looking up for sentient toilet bowls, and colonists who were promised new lands find only war-torn devastation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Stess's national animal is the Wolf🐺, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is 🐓.
Stess is ranked 259,636th in the world and 18,426th in Chicken overlords for Most Extreme, scoring 8.98 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
