The Borderlands of LannisterPort is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, digital currency, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 16.094 billion Lannisters 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, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 81.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient a Lannister economy, worth a remarkable 2,247 trillion Golds 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 large, well-organized, highly specialized black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. 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 an impressive 139,658 Golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Political activists are routinely executed, earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss, 'I'm Coming Out' has shot to the top of the nation's music charts, and if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it... a Lannister satellites can detect it. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. LannisterPort's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
LannisterPort is ranked 19,655th in the world and 1,102nd in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 92 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
