The ㅤㅤㅤㅤ of Small Venezia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Loís Deleuze with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, rampant corporate plagiarism, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.776 billion Maracuchos are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Maracaibo and Paraguaipoa. The average income tax rate is 92.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Marabino economy, worth 423 trillion Cobres a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Tourism, Basket Weaving, Furniture Restoration, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an impressive 152,650 Cobres, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Teenagers can't decide if they're more embarrassed by their parents or the country's leader, drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, the citizenship exam requires years of study to actually pass, and every day at 4am Maracuchos wake to pray for the sun to rise. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Small Venezia's national animal is the Monkulonseerü, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Manichaeism.
Small Venezia is ranked 284,363rd in the world and 4,913th in The North Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -5.22 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
