The Republic of Molies61 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.04 billion Molies61ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 33.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Molies61ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,091 trillion lire a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 180,711 lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.
A bill to outlaw math homework has been submitted, only 'organics' are permitted to be citizens, suicide victims often leave behind cash to cover the cost of their fines, and corporate lobbying has been outlawed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Molies61's national animal is the kangaroo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Molies61 is ranked 81,748th in the world and 2,732nd in Lazarus for Most Primitive, scoring 26.23 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
