The Republic of Great barr is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by 'Zumba' with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, unlimited-speed roads, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 20.686 billion Great barrians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Great barr City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Great barrian economy, worth a remarkable 5,723 trillion Dollors a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 276,671 Dollors, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,550,702 per year while the poor average 3,012, a ratio of 846 to 1.
Advertisements for jobs in the sciences run in fashion magazines, APCs on school runs disgorge kids via assault ramps, street cleaners are noticeably glum during jubilee celebrations, and both criminals and civilians are DOA. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Great barr's national animal is the Zombie, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christian.
Great barr is ranked 36,143rd in the world and 1st in The Holy Empire of Bawrai for Most Extreme, scoring 36.23 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
