The Queendom of Liurboist is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 17.598 billion Liurboistians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 64.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Liurboistian economy, worth 277 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Tourism, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 15,793 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voting is voluntary, tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, the nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist, and the people of Liurboist are renowned for their nihilistic attitudes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Liurboist's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Liurboist is ranked 47,405^th in the world and 1^st in South Dakota for Most Beautiful Environments, with 699.99 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
