Lords of the backstage

The Music of Lords of the backstage is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, strictly enforced bedtime, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 6.366 billion Lords of the backstageans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 32.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Lords of the backstagean economy, worth 536 trillion baht a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 84,212 baht, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, a murderous reputation can revitalise a flagging celebrity career, escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', and financial investors are noting a boom in artillery. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Lords of the backstage's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Lords of the backstage is ranked 226,285th in the world and 4,146th in Artificial Solar System for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -5.8 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
