The Oppressed Peoples of LookOut is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Glorious Mother Sacrifice with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.931 billion Resources 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, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sacrifice. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 57.2%.
The LookOutian economy, worth 662 trillion Bloods 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 large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. 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 74,234 Bloods, with the richest citizens earning 6.6 times as much as the poorest.
Children as young as twelve are conscripted into the armed forces, the diplomatic corps tends to open negotiations by insulting all the foreigners in the room, all guns must be registered, and nations across the world are quick to praise Glorious Mother Sacrifice's good looks and intellectual prowess. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. LookOut's national animal is the Mosquito, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
LookOut is ranked 45,396th in the world and 30th in Psychotic Dictatorships for Most Stationary, with 966.19109691508 days.
