The Republic of Card Puppet 3 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its flagrant waste-dumping, strictly enforced bedtime, and lack of airports. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 7.269 billion Card Puppet 3ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The enormous, corrupt, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Administration, although Industry and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. The average income tax rate is 91.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Card Puppet 3ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,323 trillion bells a year, is highly specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 182,054 bells, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.
Most foreigners can't name the leader of Card Puppet 3, many are questioning Leader wearing an Eckie-Ecola baseball cap during a keynote speech, there's a bustling black market for vegetables, and a newly discovered small mammal's name translates into Card Puppet 3ian as 'your finger, you fool'. Crime is all-pervasive, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Card Puppet 3's national animal is the racoon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Card Puppet 3 is ranked 293,684th in the world and 833rd in 10000 Islands for Lowest Crime Rates, with 3.25 law-abiding acts per hour.
