The United Socialist States of Linted is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 203 million Lintedans 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, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but underdeveloped Lintedan economy, worth 6.39 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 31,472 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
There's a literal nanny state for the legions of children taken by social services, Leader's perky ego is the talk of the town, invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days, and war vets look after war animals. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Linted's national animal is the Moose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Linted is ranked 241,612th in the world and 346th in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -5.4 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
