The Protectorate of Lamp Post LXXIV is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 16.05 billion Lamp Post LXXIVians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, with Welfare, Healthcare, and Public Transport also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.4%.

The strong Lamp Post LXXIVian economy, worth 628 trillion pendulums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, and Trout Farming. Average income is 39,129 pendulums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 252,190 per year while the poor average 2,452, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Lamp Post LXXIV's national animal is the polar bear, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Lamp Post LXXIV is ranked 268,603^rd in the world and 1^st in Socialist for Lowest Crime Rates, with 38.58 law-abiding acts per hour.
