The Disputed Territories of The Brink of Extinction is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 5.219 billion Brink of Extinctionians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, with Administration, Defense, and Education also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of High Landfills. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Brink of Extinctionian economy, worth 691 trillion teardrops a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 132,542 teardrops, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 394,678 per year while the poor average 34,875, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.
Bread-gangs raid restaurant waste bins to stockpile uneaten rolls, women wear burqas to avoid unwanted male attention, in musicals everybody's a little bit racist, and children play Capture the Flag and Capture the Bigtopian General Staff at summer camps. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. The Brink of Extinction's national animal is the national animal of yours, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
The Brink of Extinction is ranked 141,995th in the world and 204th in Forest for Most Stationary, with 196.19874248828 days.
