The Federal Republic of Lion764 is a very large, genial nation, remarkable for its parental licensing program, lack of airports, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 459 million Lion764ians 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 large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 56.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Lion764ian economy, worth 17.8 trillion catnips a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 38,810 catnips, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, government-sponsored WiFi allows farmers to rant about city folks in real time, collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise, and the experimental sculpture "Overtures In Dried Meowing Cats Dung" has been declared a national treasure. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lion764's national animal is the Meowing Cats, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lion764 is ranked 277,536^th in the world and 996^th in Concord for Highest Average Incomes, with 38,810.18 Standard Monetary Units.
