Laniron

The Empire of Laniron is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, complete lack of prisons, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate population of 10.494 billion Lanironians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 90.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lanironian economy, worth a remarkable 1,292 trillion Lanis a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 123,135 Lanis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Returning vacationers often find that their property is now a construction site, the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists, the official Lanironian Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child, and most of the nation's wealthy aristocrats are dentists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Laniron's national animal is the Kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Laniron is ranked 12,018th in the world and 21st in Karma for Most Cultured, scoring 110 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
