The Queendom of The Doctor and Lolita is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Lolita with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, compulsory military service, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.072 billion Doctor and Lolitans 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 government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blue Central. The average income tax rate is 80.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Doctor and Lolitan economy, worth a remarkable 1,339 trillion crystals 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Uranium Mining, Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. 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 an impressive 165,959 crystals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Ministers are now allowed to put suggestions in the governmental suggestion box, conscripts often volunteer for a second tour of duty so they can get a ticket to next year's Army Revue, the government is dead set on letting people rest in peace, and caps with skulls on them are the height of fashion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Doctor and Lolita's national animal is the Mi'en Kalarash, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Religion of Lady Lolita.
The Doctor and Lolita is ranked 109,856th in the world and 5th in The Slave Guilds for Most Stationary, with 363.12999676332 days.
