The Federal Republic of Lion930 is a very large, genial nation, remarkable for its public floggings, zero percent divorce rate, and smutty television. The compassionate, devout population of 315 million Lion930ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 45.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Lion930ian economy, worth 16.3 trillion catnips a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,896 catnips, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government, professional athletes juggle part-time jobs to avoid bankruptcy, serial commas clarify the relationship between one's lackeys, the taxpayers, and kinsfolk, and Lion930ian politicians are often described as having more style than substance. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lion930's national animal is the Meowing Cats.

Lion930 is ranked 99,214^th in the world and 30^th in Lesbian for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 97.47 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
