The Scandinavian Realm of Lagene is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 727 million Lageneans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Risastort. The average income tax rate is 65.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Lagenean economy, worth 59.2 trillion Eunes a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 81,414 Eunes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
People boast about their low income on their dating profiles, drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling", and political candidates who don't release their birth certificates are presumed to have been born in Maxtopia. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lagene's national animal is the Banana Slug, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Lagene is ranked 48,624th in the world and 560th in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 151.55 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
