The Sentai Team of PR Lightspeed Rescue is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Carter with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, deadly medical pandemics, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 11.103 billion Rangers 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mariner Bay. The average income tax rate is 76.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Power Ranger economy, worth a remarkable 2,677 trillion coins a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 241,106 coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.
Light entertainment isn't dead, celebrity wrestlers thumb their nose at due process, the nation's secret service is so secret that nobody knows if it has one, and bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. PR Lightspeed Rescue's national animal is the zord, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.
PR Lightspeed Rescue is ranked 289,424th in the world and 3,444th in the West Pacific for Most Ignorant Citizens, with 1.15 missed references per hour.
