The Colony of Neo-lien is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 6.74 billion Neo-lienians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 28.2%.
The all-consuming Neo-lienian economy, worth 644 trillion euros a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 95,616 euros, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 408,301 per year while the poor average 14,376, a ratio of 28.4 to 1.
Sullen teenagers in bright orange 'community payback' onesies can be seen picking litter at the roadside, matryoshka dolls resembling nested Death Stars are commonly sold, the government has completely eliminated all childcare programs, and artists are pillars of society. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Neo-lien's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Neo-lien is ranked 76,489th in the world and 1,384th in Jihad Army of the Emperor for Most Stationary, with 626.85298075828 days.
