The State of Loon Lake is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 20.738 billion Loon Lakeans 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 minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.5%.

The very strong Loon Lakean economy, worth 655 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Soda Sales, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 31,588 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 214,766 per year while the poor average 1,697, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, Loon Lake has designated Westminster as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Loon Lake in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Loon Lake's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Loon Lake is ranked 337,170^th in the world and 6^th in Hessen for Most Conservative, scoring zero on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
