Lughan

The Community of Lughan is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.151 billion Lughanians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 93.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lughanian economy, worth 482 trillion anars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 116,180 anars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

At customs baggage gets an x-ray and female travelers get an ultrasound, printing out government documents requires the approval of at least three admins, drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government, and the nation faces constant invasions by foreign boy bands. Crime is totally unknown. Lughan's national animal is the Colibri, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lughan is ranked 8,423rd in the world and 149th in 10000 Islands for Most Cultured, scoring 130 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
