The Republic of SmitopBot43 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its lack of airports, ritual sacrifices, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 11.856 billion SmitopBot43ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, although Industry, Defense, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Welfare isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 85.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient SmitopBot43ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,957 trillion pesos 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, quite specialized black market in Retail, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 249,458 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.
Kids are arrested at gunpoint for playing with toy rifles, the government is purchasing vast amounts of palm oil for plastics production, there's some really clean windows in SmitopBot43ian houses, and the nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. SmitopBot43's national animal is the emu, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
SmitopBot43 is ranked 345,820th in the world and 25th in SmitopBots for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -26.17 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
