The Living Intelligence System of Stylan is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by The Party with a fair hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.994 billion Stylanians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Welfare, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Babylon. The average income tax rate is 86.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Stylanian economy, worth 726 trillion Imaginary Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 103,933 Imaginary Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Judicial robes are the country's hottest fashion trend, election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and the state considers itself the 'third parent' of every child in the nation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stylan's national animal is the Swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Stylan is ranked 175,636th in the world and 3,959th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 88.10631166748 days.
