The Banana Republic of Louisiana- is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Kingfish with a fair hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.733 billion Cajun-Creoles 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 relatively small, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Spirituality, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Baton Rouge. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 29.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Cajun-Creole economy, worth 375 trillion Picayunes a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 137,418 Picayunes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 414,735 per year while the poor average 35,475, a ratio of 11.7 to 1.
Citizens often ask "what has information technology ever done for us?", there's never a spare chair in the retirement home, foreign leaders never seem to want to shake hands with Kingfish, and recruitment posters proclaim the army to be both fabulous and fashionable. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Louisiana-'s national animal is the Rougarou, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Catholicism.
Louisiana- is ranked 287,774th in the world and 9,863rd in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 3.911976663 days.
