Curative Agent 179

The Republic of Curative Agent 179 is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate population of 1.08 billion Curative Agent 179ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Law & Order, although Healthcare, Administration, and Education are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 30.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Curative Agent 179ian economy, worth 35.2 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 32,595 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Curative Agent 179ian watches list strained wrists as a common side effect, unpopular cops are fired at a moment's notice by the citizens they police, parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, and flatulent people are left to die of cancer at the end of hospital waiting lists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Curative Agent 179's national animal is the Trout, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Curative Agent 179 is ranked 294,712th in the world and 392nd in Blue Chevron for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 372.43 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
