The Holy Empire of Landinoso is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Ephraim Tasker with an even hand, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, sprawling nuclear power plants, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 7.823 billion Landinosoans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pyongyang. The average income tax rate is 36.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Landinosoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,407 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 179,951 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Wheelchair users complain it is nearly impossible for them to cross the road in Pyongyang, parents often ask to see a credit report before lending money to their own children, political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from Ephraim Tasker's throne, and gangs of political bullies tell minority voices to "shut up because we say so". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Landinoso's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christian.

Landinoso is ranked 98,233^rd in the world and 10^th in The Graveyard for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,050.4 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
