The Military-Industrial Complex of Limburgi is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Orioni with an iron fist, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads, zero percent divorce rate, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 36.45 billion Limburgians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order and Industry are also considered important, while Social Policy and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of O'polis. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Limburgian economy, worth an astonishing 11,528 trillion IONS a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 316,276 IONS, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,939,708 per year while the poor average 3,134, a ratio of 937 to 1.

Politicians stage photo ops featuring barely functional fighter jets, young children are learning advanced physics to scientifically disprove the existence of Santa Claus, the diplomatic corps tends to open negotiations by insulting all the foreigners in the room, and the military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Limburgi's national animal is the democratic socialist, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Orioni.

Limburgi is ranked 98,074th in the world and 99th in Eurth for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 2,988.13 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
