Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Commonwealth of New Lakemba is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by The Committee with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 11.382 billion New Lakembans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Healthcare, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Canberra. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient New Lakemban economy, worth a remarkable 3,068 trillion New Lakembian Standard Kebabs a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 269,632 New Lakembian Standard Kebabs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes, consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, and artists are pillars of society. Crime is totally unknown. New Lakemba's national animal is the Animal Kingdom, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Lakemba is ranked 145^th in the world and 8^th in The North Pacific for Least Corrupt Governments, with 98.91 Percentage Of Bribes Refused.
