The Republic of Lidila is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its frequent executions, anti-smoking policies, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 581 million Lidilans 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, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 65.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The thriving Lidilan economy, worth 47.8 trillion Lids 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 a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. 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 82,260 Lids, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
There's a lot of mouth-breathers about these days, the controversial show 'Who Wants to be an Immigrant?' has become wildly popular, deceased politicians' MyFace profiles are unanimously pro-incumbent, and fixing attendance at women's matches is a matter of "when they go low, we go high... funding". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lidila's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Lidila is ranked 191,763rd in the world and 126th in Magna Aurea for Safest, scoring 47.65 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
