The Kingdom of Landiya

“Per Aspera Ad Inferni”

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

The Kingdom of Landiya is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Mama Emeritus I with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 5.4 billion Landiyans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Emotopia. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Landiyan economy, worth 751 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 Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 139,112 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Travelers are subject to extensive searches if beet stains are visible on their clothing, boys who take just one date to the high school prom are called 'losers', skateparks can be found in every city, and rumor has it that Mama Emeritus I has won three lotteries in a row. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Landiya's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Occultism.

Landiya is ranked 2,887^th in the world and 3^rd in The Kingdom of Great Britain for Lowest Crime Rates, with 131.66 law-abiding acts per hour.
