Overview • Factbook • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The United Kingdom of Landfield is a huge, socially progressive nation, renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, daily referendums, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 498 million Landfieldians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Galway. The average income tax rate is 68.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Landfieldian economy, worth 43.7 trillion Landian Pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is 87,787 Landian Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Extreme hiring regulations mean a job in Landfield is often a lifetime appointment, grocery stores can be audibly identified by the giggling emerging from them, high school bands practice by moonlight, and meat-eating is frowned upon. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Landfield's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Landfield is ranked 29,930^th in the world and 4^th in Newlandia for Smartest Citizens, with 48.95 quips per hour.
