The People's Republic of Liknovia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Chairman Beni with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.866 billion Liknovians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tiflis. The average income tax rate is 87.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Liknovian economy, worth 236 trillion Liknoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 126,512 Liknoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Quiet professionalism has returned to the nation's armed forces, captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship, the combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage, and genetic researchers have been expelled. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Liknovia's national animal is the Orangutan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Liknovia is ranked 260,616^th in the world and 1,724^th in The Communist Bloc for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring -202.59 on the Hayek Index.
