Lavender Delegate

Population7.241 billion

CurrencyLavender Orbs
AnimalLavender Macaw

The Empire of Lavender Delegate is a mammoth, genial nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, parental licensing program, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.241 billion Lavender Delegateans 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 73.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lavender Delegatean economy, worth a remarkable 1,025 trillion Lavender Orbs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 141,594 Lavender Orbs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crocodile roadkill is smeared across the asphalt of the new Formula One track, the long arm of the law possesses a rather slow hand, nobody ever questions the unquestioned rule that questions must always be asked, and lawyers turn down litigation cases and corporate work in order to focus on lucrative public defence work. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lavender Delegate's national animal is the Lavender Macaw, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Lavender Delegate is ranked 208,796th in the world and 1st in Inflation for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 225.79 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
