Papa Spiros Taverna

The Saganaki Induced Community of Papa Spiros Taverna is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 28.517 billion Papa Spiros Tavernans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Social Policy. The average income tax rate is 66.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Papa Spiros Tavernan economy, worth 667 trillion Drachmas 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 a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. 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 23,422 Drachmas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Papa Spiros Taverna's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Papa Spiros Taverna is ranked 136,046th in the world and 2nd in Westfalen Westphalia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 62.17 law-abiding acts per hour.
