The Listen of Experience is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Jimi Hendrix with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, state-planned economy, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 15.212 billion Voodoo Children enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The medium-sized, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Social Policy, and Industry also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Electric Ladyland. The average income tax rate is 34.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Experienced economy, worth a remarkable 1,517 trillion joints a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is 99,782 joints, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts, graffiti is done with immaculate multi-layer shading, millions of joints have been thrown into a project to find the cure for Mad Riff Disease, and frat-house partying has become the national pastime. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Experience's national animal is the riff, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is the Power of Soul.
Experience is ranked 25,911th in the world and 11th in Hippy Haven for Most Developed, scoring 84.58 on the Human Development Index.
