The Empire of Litchenstienen is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Alola Rondle with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 15.991 billion Litchenstienenians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stadt der Lieder. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Litchenstienenian economy, worth an astonishing 13,109 trillion Nuyens 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. 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 a breathtaking 819,782 Nuyens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The might of the entire Litchenstienenian Navy is focused on fifty bemused spear-throwing islanders, worried-looking neonatal nurses are being deployed in place of SWAT teams during dangerous drug busts, anti-tourism militias patrol the borders, and citizens recently voted in favour of declaring bubblewrap an 'abomination of nature'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Litchenstienen's national animal is the Palm Top Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Litchenstienen is ranked 170th in the world and 3rd in Balder for Smartest Citizens, with 402.18 quips per hour.
