The Wonderful World of Television is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, free-roaming dinosaurs, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 5.424 billion Televisionians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The relatively small government is primarily concerned with Education, although Environment, Healthcare, and Defense are also considered important. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 29.6%.
The all-consuming Televisionian economy, worth 628 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 115,886 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 380,038 per year while the poor average 26,521, a ratio of 14.3 to 1.
Sleazy politicians exploit the Parliamentary Code of Conduct to purge their rivals, scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations, and schoolyard sandboxes resemble ashtrays due to the large number of cigarette butts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Television's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Television is ranked 158,587th in the world and 1st in Television for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 1,809.59 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
