The Republic of LLL 07 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, devout population of 8.238 billion LLL 07ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 31.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The thriving LLL 07ian economy, worth 482 trillion lls 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 Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Gambling. 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 58,552 lls, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Children fear compulsory visits to their spiritual advisors more than the dentist, foreign militaries are taking a particular interest in the nation's abandoned borders and cities, traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, and dancing with your first cousin is a misdemeanor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. LLL 07's national animal is the ll, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
LLL 07 is ranked 43,707th in the world and 17th in Libertium for Most Stationary, with 1,016.3370925994 days.
