The Dominion of Crackerish Giveaway Beggar is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its digital currency, keen interest in outer space, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.61 billion Crackerish Giveaway Beggarians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 57.3%.
The powerhouse Crackerish Giveaway Beggarian economy, worth 245 trillion cards a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 93,954 cards, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 339,149 per year while the poor average 18,593, a ratio of 18.2 to 1.
The path to inner peace is paved with state-mandated punishment, government officials frown on anything more technologically advanced than an abacus, Crackerish Giveaway Beggarian tourists are banned from many nations due to their tendency to randomly explode, and posh restaurants scatter glass fragments on the dining room floor to keep out barefoot undesirables. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Crackerish Giveaway Beggar's national animal is the card beggar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Crackerish Giveaway Beggar is ranked 139,032nd in the world and 9th in Trading Cards for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 2,617.23 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
