The Armed Republic of Lacoba is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 942 million Lacobans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 58.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but underdeveloped Lacoban economy, worth 35.6 trillion Plats a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,816 Plats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist, courtrooms can be a little sketchy, euthanasia is legal, and Leader has just been declared ruler of Lacoba in an international press conference. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lacoba's national animal is the bull.
Lacoba is ranked 119,773rd in the world and 3,307th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 65 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
