The Singers of Lurklife 10 is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Latabchi Lage with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, infamous sell-swords, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, devout population of 7.499 billion Lurklife 10ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — prioritizes Education, although Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kaiten. The average income tax rate is 72.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but sluggish Lurklife 10ian economy, worth 164 trillion baht a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Tourism, Pizza Delivery, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 21,960 baht, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Kids are arrested at gunpoint for playing with toy rifles, traveller camps regularly block five-lane superhighways, only adults may purchase violent video games, and Latabchi Lage is too busy listening to praise to get any work done. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lurklife 10's national animal is the elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is tashikani.
Lurklife 10 is ranked 242,295th in the world and 7,631st in Suspicious for Nicest Citizens, with 1.9 average smiles per day.
