The Protectorate of Stovakor is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its flagrant waste-dumping, public floggings, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 16.881 billion Stovakorians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.9%.
The all-consuming Stovakorian economy, worth a remarkable 2,687 trillion denarii a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 159,185 denarii, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,460,605 per year while the poor average 1,824, a ratio of 800 to 1.
Books are considered luxuries only available to the incredibly wealthy, stranded astronauts hitch rides on foreign spacecraft to get home, Stovakorian athletes are close to breaking the 2 minute mile and the 16 meter long jump, and breast milk lattes are the newest fad among hip urbanites. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force. Stovakor's national animal is the Butt, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Stovakor is ranked 64,098th in the world and 2,527th in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,649.65 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
