The Very 1999 Christmas of Of the Tyrannical Frogs is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Schlanta Claus with an even hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, parental licensing program, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.287 billion Frogsians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of San Edmundo. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Frogsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,286 trillion Aureuses 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, 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 an amazing 204,704 Aureuses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.
Geosynchronous satellites are now manned by unpaid interns, the government is spending millions on 'trust campaigns' in an effort to win back the public's support, the Department of Reduction of Bureaucratic Red Tape has set up a working committee to investigate its own excessive paperwork, and landless farmers wander forlornly in the government's many national parks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Of the Tyrannical Frogs's national animal is the Wedge-Tailed Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Piracy.
Of the Tyrannical Frogs is ranked 164,830th in the world and 3,153rd in The North Pacific for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 1,510.59 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
