The People's Republic of Lux aeturnum is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Sir Jim of Jim with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed population of 12.918 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, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Defence, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 34%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Tourism and Information Technology.

Organ donation is compulsory, unstable couples are known to break up over which one gets parental leave, nine out of ten citizens of Lux aeturnum answered 'nuclear safety inspector' when asked their occupation, and the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lux aeturnum's national animal is the akak-akak-akah, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the guk.

Lux aeturnum is ranked 1,555th in The East Pacific and 38,505th in the world for Most Authoritarian, with 0.613 Stalins.
