The Empire of Lorb is a very large, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, enforced nudity, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 480 million Lorbians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valmoria. The average income tax rate is 39.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Lorbian economy, worth 27.0 trillion orbs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 56,249 orbs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
