The Queendom of Linaster is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, democratic population of 653 million Linasterians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 25.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Linasterian economy, worth 34.5 trillion bricks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 52,813 bricks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Dragon is one of the most popular forenames in Linaster, animal liberationists receive government funding to break into animal research labs, the nation is stuck in permanent election mode as politicians demand constant do-overs, and doctors who mutter "Oh my God" often lose their medical license. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Linaster's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Linaster is ranked 111,903^rd in the world and 9^th in The Wave Experience for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 10,633.21 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
