The City of Modesto is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic population of 1.922 billion Modestoans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.
The strong Modestoan economy, worth 100 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 52,528 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 6.2 times as much as the poorest.
Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Modesto's national animal is the horse, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Modesto is ranked 91,637th in the world and 6th in California for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 90.28 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
