The Lotus Sangha of Lord Buddha is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 17.832 billion Buddhists are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Spirituality, and Healthcare also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 69.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Buddhist economy, worth 266 trillion Dānas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Beef-Based Agriculture, Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 14,969 Dānas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lord Buddha's national animal is the White Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lord Buddha is ranked 273,936^th in the world and 2^nd in Angkor Wat for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.69 kickbacks per hour.
