The Noodleheaded Nobodies of Noogie Noggins



We welcome The Noodleheaded Nobodies of Noogie Noggins (http://www.sunsetrpg.com/economystatistics.php?nation=The+Noodleheaded+Nobodies+of+Noogie+Noggins), as the 30th member nation state in 01 Eastern Roman Empire Region.

The Noodleheaded Nobodies of Noogie Noggins is a huge, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 769 million 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.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Law & Order, although Education and Healthcare are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 50%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.
The mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, convicted felons are forced into slavery for their crimes, teenagers are sent to jail for being out too late, and Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Noogie Noggins's national animal is the nogginhead, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the noogie.
