The Protectorate of Lamp Post LXIV is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 16.13 billion Lamp Post LXIVians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, with Healthcare, Welfare, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.2%.

The strong Lamp Post LXIVian economy, worth 562 trillion pendulums a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 34,884 pendulums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 224,835 per year while the poor average 2,186, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Lamp Post LXIV's national animal is the polar bear, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Lamp Post LXIV is ranked 207,976th in the world and 5,403rd in the Rejected Realms for Most Corrupt Governments, with 1.06 kickbacks per hour.
