The I was bornnn of Heart of Lothian is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its fear of technology, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.246 billion Heart of Lothianians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 53.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Heart of Lothianian economy, worth 640 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Trout Farming, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,578 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.
Sheepish teenagers are making eye contact with their parents for the first time in a decade during state-enforced 'no-phones hour', the nation's interest in space is at an all-time high while interest in saving the planet is at an all-time low, the combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage, and politicians accost strangers in the street to ask their problems. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Heart of Lothian's national animal is the kiwi, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Heart of Lothian is ranked 283,008th in the world and 4,716th in Artificial Solar System for Most Stationary, with 5.89598233768 days.
