The Armed Republic of Lindernars is a very large, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, devout population of 198 million Lindernarsians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Lindernarsian economy, worth 6.25 trillion Рубльs a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 31,580 Рубльs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past, police are saying "bye book" to "by the book", the government only announces the deaths of its members when it's convenient, and the revelation that people were sexist in the past is apparently front page news. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lindernars's national animal is the Голубь, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lindernars is ranked 107,398^th in the world and 1,078^th in The Communist Bloc for Smartest Citizens, with 31.73 quips per hour.
