The Republic of The 757 is a titanic, safe nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 11.263 billion 757ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 60.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish 757ian economy, worth 286 trillion rubledollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Pizza Delivery, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 25,442 rubledollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's a bright dawn ahead for The 757, surveillance cameras are banned, organ donation is compulsory, and the nation's government buildings are remarkable for being ugly concrete boxes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The 757's national animal is the hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

The 757 is ranked 70,342^nd in the world and 1^st in World federation for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 60.33 Effective Tax Rate.
