The Malthusian Fecundity of Celtic Rodents is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by The Ultimate Squeaker with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 42.808 billion Scurriers live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The tiny, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Administration and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Law & Order are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Everywhere. Income tax is unheard of.
The frighteningly efficient Scurrian economy, worth an astonishing 11,571 trillion mythical groats a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 270,304 mythical groats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.
Anti-government web sites are springing up, government officials frequently cut taxes as a distraction from antics with their secretaries, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, and the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Celtic Rodents's national animal is the small furry beastie, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is None.
Celtic Rodents is ranked 331,553rd in the world and 5,716th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -34.79 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
