Overview • PeopleGovernmentEconomyTrendAnalysis

The Unruly Confederation of CoolHandLuke is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Luke the Champion with a fair hand, and notable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 4.649 billion love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of the Environment, Education, and Social Equality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ChainGang Central. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Nude art is becoming wildly popular, the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, and all weapon research has been banned. Crime is totally unknown. CoolHandLuke's national animal is the bender, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Boiled Egg.

CoolHandLuke is ranked 218th in USSR and 130,796th in the world for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -15 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
