Laane County

The Commonwealth of Laane County is a mammoth, efficient nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, free-roaming dinosaurs, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 5.277 billion Laane Countyians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 73.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Laane Countyian economy, worth 709 trillion euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 134,496 euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Art is not complete without a touch of alizarin blood and titanium sweat, not all rivers run to the sea, business is banging at no-tell motels, and teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Laane County's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Laane County is ranked 33,292nd in the world and 6th in Counties of Estonia for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,515.44 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
