The Queen's State of The Lightfoot is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its complete lack of public education, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 30.869 billion Lightfootians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The minute government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Spirituality, although Industry is also considered important, while Defense and Social Policy are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.
The thriving Lightfootian economy, worth a remarkable 1,502 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Average income is 48,688 betales, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.
Elections have been outlawed. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Lightfoot's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
The Lightfoot is ranked 237,477th in the world and 9th in Maldives for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -7.07 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
