The Empire of West Nichibotsu is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Akihito with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.888 billion Nichibotsuans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tokyo. The average income tax rate is 78.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Nichibotsuan economy, worth 291 trillion Yen a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 154,514 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
The government strictly regulates whale harvest quotas, passionate nomination battles are often as intense as general elections, ghost regiments exist only on paper, and vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. West Nichibotsu's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Shintoism.
West Nichibotsu is ranked 19,639th in the world and 13th in Council of Asia for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,039.47 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
