The Chuck Yeager Specter of Testing one two three is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 33.361 billion Testing one two threeans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beemans. The average income tax rate is 50.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Testing one two threean economy, worth a remarkable 3,511 trillion $$s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 105,250 $$s, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government adverts say that twelve lashes a day keeps divine wrath at bay, prisoners due for execution often use their final statement to complain about soggy bread rolls, the Finance Ministry has gone into meltdown upon hearing the price to avoid nuclear disaster, and internal strife within the Red Bloc crumbles in the face of fiery rhetoric. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Testing one two three's national animal is the ^-^, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Aubrey-Maturinism.

Testing one two three is ranked 293,335^th in the world and 13^th in BLITZKRIEG for Least Corrupt Governments, with 52.31 percentage of bribes refused.
