The Kingdom of Tytsjerksteradiel NLD is a massive, safe nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, infamous sell-swords, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.962 billion Tytsjerksteradiel NLDians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 72.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Tytsjerksteradiel NLDian economy, worth 378 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 slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, 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 127,644 euros, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 395,342 per year while the poor average 31,752, a ratio of 12.5 to 1.

There's a lot of mouth-breathers about these days, the experimental sculpture "Overtures In Dried Lion Dung" has been declared a national treasure, a murderous reputation can revitalise a flagging celebrity career, and politicians can't accept birthday presents from their own children. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tytsjerksteradiel NLD's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Tytsjerksteradiel NLD is ranked 16,035th in the world and 14th in Aerospace for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 7,977.9 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
