The Republic of Oil but with Gun is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by that one oil with a gun with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.084 billion Oil but with Gunians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gun of Oil. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 36.1%.
The thriving Oil but with Gunian economy, worth 132 trillion oils a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 63,398 oils, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 191,915 per year while the poor average 16,296, a ratio of 11.8 to 1.
Orphanages are closing their doors as the government forces parents to actually raise their children, citizenship applications are processed in the time it takes to smile and say "next, please", small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, and older ladies are inundated with offers to help them cross the road. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oil but with Gun's national animal is the oil cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Oil but with Gun is ranked 258,427th in the world and 5th in SCMACE for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -7.67 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
