The Prefecture of Taihoku is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Governor Kabayama Sukenori with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 5.059 billion Taihokuans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Taihoku City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.9%.
The strong Taihokuan economy, worth 270 trillion yen a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 53,438 yen, with the richest citizens earning 6.7 times as much as the poorest.
It's a marvellous night for a moon dance as the sparks on your home start to rise, the nation is famous for having one of the world's largest dragon hunting institutions, all artwork is carefully screened for offensive material, and political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Taihoku's national animal is the dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Shintō.
Taihoku is ranked 177,634th in the world and 61st in Japan for Most Extreme, scoring 16.96 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
