“Peace, Equality, Freedom, and Truth”

The Queendom of Liciousia is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 650 million 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, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Equality, and Social Welfare. The average income tax rate is 83%, and even higher for the wealthy. A substantial private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Colleges adhere to rigid ethnic quotas for admissions, recruitment posters proclaim the army to be both fabulous and fashionable, euthanasia is legal, and the government is pursuing a new programme aimed at promoting cultural sophistication. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Liciousia's national animal is the Hippogriff, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Ullielina.

Liciousia is ranked 2nd in the region and 3,842nd in the world for Best Weather.
