The Democratic States of Lolla is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 110 million Lollans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, although Education is also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.
The strong Lollan economy, worth 6.65 trillion marks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 60,473 marks, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 389,757 per year while the poor average 3,790, a ratio of 102 to 1.
The military refers to helpless combatants offering surrender as "sitting ducks", organ donation is compulsory, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and men who wear pink are seen as dangerously unmanly. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Lolla's national animal is the bison, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Lolla is ranked 28,358th in the world and 8th in RPS for Most Secular, with 33.38 Atheism Rate.
