The Protectorate of Livik is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Czar Nicholas with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed population of 2.967 billion Livikites are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ross. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Liviki economy, worth 226 trillion Livoks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 76,505 Livoks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

People who have lived their entire lives in Livik are shocked to discover that they are not citizens, children asking questions about science are referred to relevant sections in religious texts, obstetricians are not allowed to publish ultrasound pictures of fetuses in medical journals, and sheepish teenagers are making eye contact with their parents for the first time in a decade during state-enforced 'no-phones hour'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Livik's national animal is the Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is idk what.

Livik is ranked 208,908th in the world and 12th in Plands for Most Stationary, with 37.48811489648 days.
