The Proletariat Paradise of Lanakea is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Workers with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, complete lack of prisons, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 12.201 billion Lanakeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Noʻōrma. The average income tax rate is 99.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Lanakean economy, worth a remarkable 3,016 trillion Staʻars 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 significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 247,268 Staʻars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

High school boys are required to pass vigorous self-mastery and sensitivity training to graduate, the "feminist protest" defence is increasingly common for cases of armed robbery, the national security service are a bunch of crooks, and families are left homeless as entire suburbs are bulldozed on the whim of tribal chiefs. 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 Religiously Apathetic Deism.

Lanakea is ranked 821^st in the world and 30^th in Europe for Nicest Citizens, with 97.36 average smiles per day.
