The North American Union
Category: Corporate Police State
Civil Rights: Outlawed
Economy: Powerhouse
Political Freedoms: Outlawed
The Dominion of The N American Union is a very large, devout nation, remarkable for its strong anti-business politics. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 97 million are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic morass -- juggles the competing demands of Commerce, Law & Order, and Religion & Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 30%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Automobile Manufacturing.
The automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, political activists are routinely executed, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, and employers may fire workers without giving any reason. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. The N American Union's national animal is the Black Vulture and its currency is the Amero.
The N American Union is ranked 2305th in the region and 64,492nd in the world for Most Politically Free Nations.
