OverviewFactbookPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Kingdom of Literian is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Skydon with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, state-planned economy, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.243 billion Literians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of D'Amare. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Literianian economy, worth a remarkable 1,314 trillion Armonds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 181,434 Armonds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Family isn't who you're born with but who you abandon in foreign countries, corporate lawyers are joyfully combing through the new tax code for any new loopholes for their clients, the government enforces a policy of 'from each according to their ability, to each according to the available budget', and ships no longer sail as no one wants to encounter Literianian pirates. Crime is totally unknown. Literian's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Literian is ranked 4,791st in the world and 222nd in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 210.11 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
