The Ozone friendly Lemmings of Just Dig is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by the player with an iron fist, and renowned for its public floggings, ubiquitous missile silos, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 23.138 billion Lemmings are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company.
