The Proletarian Dictatorship of Argentigrad is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Che Guevara with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate population of 12.627 billion Argentigradians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Buenos Aires. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Argentigradian economy, worth a remarkable 1,336 trillion pesos 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 mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 105,849 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The sound of wooden legs echo throughout Argentigrad after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax, it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, government bureaucrats shut down teenage yard-raking businesses for being counter-revolutionary, and lifeguards are more concerned with watching for sharks than struggling swimmers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Argentigrad's national animal is the ñandú, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Argentigrad is ranked 289,689th in the world and 362nd in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -24.61 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
