The Rogue Nation of Legionnary XXII is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 4.291 billion Legionnary XXIIians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 49.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but sluggish Legionnary XXIIian economy, worth 98.3 trillion Dolleuros 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, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 22,908 Dolleuros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Voting is voluntary, divorce is illegal, surveillance cameras are banned, and college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Legionnary XXII's national animal is the Bald Eagle.
Legionnary XXII is ranked 136,297th in the world and 4,473rd in Lazarus for Most Primitive, scoring -45.83 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
