The Kingdom of Letiutin is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by King Vyan X with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 16.185 billion Letiutinians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dred. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Letiutinian economy, worth a remarkable 2,526 trillion Rodins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Gambling. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 156,095 Rodins, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 898,691 per year while the poor average 12,995, a ratio of 69.2 to 1.
The term "Native Letiutinian" has been redefined as anyone with the same skin color as the majority, a proud mining community is considering a rebellion after the Capital officially renamed them 'District XII', female brains are believed to heat up dangerously when 'overclocked', and songs in 4/4 time are simply too common for the musical cognoscenti. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Letiutin's national animal is the Red-Nosed Reindeer, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Indigoism.
Letiutin is ranked 116,734th in the world and 67th in Barbaria for Largest Governments, scoring 15.3 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
