Just what my megalomania needed...
Dec. 17th, 2002 09:47 amMy very own country:
The Commonwealth of Lorien
"If there is no struggle, there is no progress."
UN Category: Left-wing Utopia
Civil Rights: Superb
Economy: Fragile
Political Freedoms: Superb
Location: The Black Rose Garden
The Commonwealth of Lorien is a tiny, devout nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5 million are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whoever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Social Welfare, although Education and Healthcare are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 50%, and even higher for the wealthy. A tiny private sector is dominated by the Retail industry.
Crime is well under control. Lorien's national animal is the apple tree cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the franklin.
