Frangleterre



The Red Empire of Frangleterre is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Ãmpayœrror Napoléon IV Elysium Lutéciaø with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, anti-smoking policies, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, cheerful population of 1.359 billion Franglish are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lutécia. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Franglish economy, worth 194 trillion Livres a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 143,403 Livres, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens wishing to leave the country must surrender half their wealth to the government, badminton was recently banned due to 'unacceptable violence' inherent to the game, 90% of active duty FAF personnel have been laid off and replaced by robot kill-drones, and businesses are forced to bring all work back within the nation's borders. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Frangleterre's national animal is the unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
