The Grand Duchy of Laurenburg is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Grand Duke Anton von Laurenburg with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, zero percent divorce rate, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 14.615 billion Laurenburgers are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Laurenburg. The average income tax rate is 38.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Laurenburgian economy, worth a remarkable 1,508 trillion laurenmarks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Retail, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 103,236 laurenmarks, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.
Being Grand Duke Anton von Laurenburg has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs, Laurenburgian TV is considered cruel and unusual punishment in other countries, the dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu, and the bayonet is cutting-edge technology. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Laurenburg's national animal is the Swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.
Laurenburg is ranked 82,609th in the world and 2nd in Great Laurenburg for Lowest Crime Rates, with 68.16 law-abiding acts per hour.
