The Empire of Life empire is a titanic, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 13.316 billion Life empireans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vitalis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Life empirean economy, worth a remarkable 3,592 trillion infinity credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 269,798 infinity credits, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 941,714 per year while the poor average 56,226, a ratio of 16.7 to 1.

Death is nobody's business, bored politicians often entertain themselves with games of Simon during important votes, pareidolic SETI scientists swear there's a message from aliens hidden within pi, and the government strictly regulates whale harvest quotas. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Life empire's national animal is the Dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Life empire is ranked 3,805^th in the world and 1^st in Lair of the Dragon for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 68,640.9 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
