The Proletariat Paradise of Lanakea is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by The Workers with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.91 billion Lanakeans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Australea. The average income tax rate is 96.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Lanakean economy, worth a remarkable 1,280 trillion Galaxias a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 185,330 Galaxias, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The cruise missile launchers on the field hospital roof are purely deterrent in purpose, 'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Lanakea's radio stations, drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, and East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy'. Crime is totally unknown. Lanakea's national animal is the Humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Apatheism.

Lanakea is ranked 2,850th in the world and 27th in Europe for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 3,553.94 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
