The Republic of Liononim is a gargantuan, devout nation, ruled by Lionofzion Fear my Roar with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 19.06 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Religion & Spirituality, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, followed by Book Publishing and Automobile Manufacturing.

A typical fast food menu item could serve a small army, tourists outnumber citizens two to one, conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, and new safety regulations require all cars manufactured in Liononim to be bombproof. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Liononim's national animal is the Lion of course, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the shekel.

Liononim is ranked 4,777th in The North Pacific and 94,909th in the world for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring -488 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
