The Kingdom of Etten-Leur NLD is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, enslaved workforce, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 2.955 billion Etten-Leur NLDians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 70.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Etten-Leur NLDian economy, worth 444 trillion euros 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. 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 an impressive 150,361 euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.
Children's TV shows are having a gay old time, Leader is called 'Patches' at international summits, graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail, and the tools of the trade for landmine clearance appear to be copious amounts of gasoline and a box of matches. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Etten-Leur NLD's national animal is the lion.
Etten-Leur NLD is ranked 20,906th in the world and 97th in Aerospace for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 6,982.07 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
