The Mods want tacos fiefdom of Lunatic Goofballs is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its ban on automobiles. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 19.513 billion live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass -- juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and the Environment. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Artists are pillars of society, the military frequently holds bake sales to raise funds, it is a common belief that a sport isn't sport if there are no decapitations, and citizens select which government department gets their income tax looneys each year. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lunatic Goofballs's national animal is the cuckoo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the looney.

Lunatic Goofballs is ranked 3rd in Zhaucauozian Friendship and 3,154th in the world for Most Influential, scoring 67 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
