The TSLU

The People's Republic of The TSLU is a very large, safe nation, notable for its parental licensing program, ban on automobiles, and restrictive gun laws. The democratic population of 130 million Technocratics enjoy great social freedoms and frequent elections, where the majority of the populace regularly votes to increase its benefits at the expense of various hapless minorities.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 35.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped TSLUian economy, worth 4.81 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 36,984 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leader reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes, an aboriginal talking stick is used for leaders' debates at election time, NPCs in MMORPGs regularly interrupt cutscenes with OOC reminders that they aren't real people, and father-son fishing trips have been banned. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The TSLU's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

The TSLU is ranked 33,181st in the world and 27th in MHBs New Earth for Most Secular, with 33.48 Atheism Rate.
