“Dance to the music of the stars”

The Colony of Lindworm Castle is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, rampant corporate plagiarism, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 23.395 billion Lindworms live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The medium-sized, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Education, although Welfare and Social Policy are also considered important, while Law & Order and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 42.8%.

The powerhouse Lindworm Castlean economy, worth a remarkable 1,545 trillion Pyras a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling and Tourism. Average income is 66,065 Pyras, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 211,811 per year while the poor average 15,630, a ratio of 13.6 to 1.

Political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions, when people ask what the difference is between politicians and lawyers they are referred to document c15(iv) section 14.1 subsection 3.2 of the Jan 2015 political category definition guidance codes, anti-government web sites are springing up, and popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Lindworm Castle's national animal is the Marmot, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Lindworm Castle is ranked 86,714^th in the world and 4^th in Zamonia for Most Patriotic, with 14.65 flags saluted per person per day.
