Ohio Christmas

Population1.543 billion

The Christmas Combine of Ohio Christmas is a massive, pleasant nation, remarkable for its avant-garde cinema, zero percent divorce rate, and enslaved workforce. The quiet, industrious population of 1.543 billion Ohio Christmasians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Public Transport. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.4%.

The Ohio Christmasian economy, worth 77.3 trillion golds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 50,066 golds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 146,689 per year while the poor average 13,478, a ratio of 10.9 to 1.

Pharmaceutical companies emphatically promise that "your pills are in the mail" rather than admit any supply shortfall, nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, immigrant Maxtopians are routinely sold on popular internet auction sites, and nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines. Crime is moderate. Ohio Christmas's national animal is the reindeer.

Ohio Christmas is ranked 226,876th in the world and 552nd in The Blades for Lowest Crime Rates, with 56.37 law-abiding acts per hour.
