The Most Serene Republic of Loweslan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Major business owners with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.841 billion Loweslanians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Loweslania. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Loweslanian economy, worth 705 trillion guilders a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 145,732 guilders, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 829,039 per year while the poor average 12,470, a ratio of 66.5 to 1.
Elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, no suburban lawn is complete without barbed wire and landmines, the government is more interested in identifying problems than fixing them, and referenda are banned by law and the Parliament has absolute control of the legislative process. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Loweslan's national animal is the sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Loweslan is ranked 19,930th in the world and 1st in Szabadsag for Most Secular, with 57.39 Atheism Rate.
