The Lannister Mastermind of The Imp is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 18.621 billion Impians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The enormous, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 50.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but inefficient Impian economy, worth 484 trillion Marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 26,024 Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
Motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, students cut up leftover Marks during Arts and Crafts, and a major religion has been named as The Imp's national religion. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Imp's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
The Imp is ranked 168,431st in the world and 6,419th in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 14.05 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
