16. Mine is..
Kjerstinia.

Ouch my economy has taken a downward turn..

The United States of Kjerstinia is a small, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its burgeoning calico population. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 16 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government concentrates mainly on Social Welfare, although Healthcare and Education are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 34%, but much higher for the wealthy. A tiny private sector is dominated by the Furniture Restoration industry.

Nudity is frowned upon, gambling is outlawed, the calico is a protected species, and high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate. Crime is totally unknown. Kjerstinia's national animal is the calico, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the aquamarine.

Kjerstinia is ranked 28th in the region and 99,921st in the world for Highest Police Ratios.
