The Republic of The Paris Night Skyline is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Emmanuel Macron with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 4.877 billion Paris Night Skylineans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The medium-sized, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paris. The average income tax rate is 93.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Paris Night Skylinean economy, worth a remarkable 1,728 trillion Euros 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, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. 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 354,333 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.
The country routinely whitewashes uncomfortable parts of its history, commuters travel in zigzags to avoid stalking accusations, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, and Emmanuel Macron reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes. Crime is totally unknown. The Paris Night Skyline's national animal is the Gallic Rooster, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
The Paris Night Skyline is ranked 286,505th in the world and 13th in United Earth Government for Most Beautiful Environments, with 3.8 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
