The Protectorate of The Longest Time is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service and suspicion of poets. The quiet, industrious population of 4.983 billion Longest Timeans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 29.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Longest Timean economy, worth 201 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 40,348 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

EULAs remind customers that "Private Mode" is a browser setting rather than a promise, advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references, whenever pilots have to bail out the government bails out their company, and singles on the dating scene no longer worry about looking their age. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Longest Time's national animal is the Kitsune, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Longest Time is ranked 224,924^th in the world and 8^th in Ten for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 4,863.88 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
