The Enlightened Royal Empire of Limbourgia is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 11.462 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is effectively ruled by the Department of Social Welfare, with areas such as Law & Order and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.
UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news, senior citizens are often found slaving away in factories, the government has started a campaign to crack down on road rage and encourage alternate means of commuting, and public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Limbourgia's national animal is the Black Panther, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Limbus.
Limbourgia is ranked 17th in the region and 8,144th in the world for Nudest.
