The Schrodinger's LC 🐧 of Volaworand is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Acting Prime Minister Alan Duncan with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 5.401 billion Volaworandians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Industry, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rothera. The average income tax rate is 14.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Volaworandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,070 trillion Pound Sterlings a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 198,227 Pound Sterlings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Every school is receiving a brand new eraser, sending sick politicians "Get Well Soon" cards is considered bribery, it is illegal to brush crumbs off your clothing outdoors, and the nation's massive battleships are often mistaken for islands. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Volaworand's national animal is the chinstrap penguin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Volaworand is ranked 58,189^th in the world and 2,481^st in the South Pacific for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring 89.62 on the Hayek Index.
