The Dominion of Super-China is a large, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its
hard-working, cynical population of 26 million 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 large
government juggles the competing demands of Defence,
Education, and Law & Order. The average income
tax rate is 21%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, followed by
Trout Farming and Arms Manufacturing.
Military spending is on the increase, refugees from other nations are flocking to Super-China's border, the mining industry has taken a hit from tighter environmental regulations, and there's a shortage of swinging hot spots as land development grinds to a halt. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in
education and welfare. Super-China's national animal is the fugu fish, which frolics freely in the nation's many
lush forests, and its currency is the uranium peso.
