The Commonwealth of Lisburn Mateys is a huge, economically powerful nation, renowned for its burgeoning leprechaun population. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 634 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 45%. A healthy private sector is led by the Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology industries.
The roads are virtually falling apart, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, poets and writers are regularly rounded up and shot for entertainment, and citizens are frequently held up at gunpoint by their local pizza delivery boys. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lisburn Mateys's national animal is the leprechaun, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
The real love in the Commonwealth of Lisburn Mateys is football which has recently emerged on the world scene
Primerio Liga
For many years the commenwealth of Lisburn Mateys was living under a Dictatorship rule. No information got in or out.
With the resent change in government however the country has become more open especially after the nations agreement to sign up for both world cup 28 and the under 21 cup, along with the baptism of fire. News has reached the international community about the league structure in the Lisburn Mateys
A brief History
The league system began 30 years ago in the city of Hillsborough but consisted of only 3 teams, Downshire FC, Hillsborough Boys and Lisburn Youth. Each team played each other twice home and away. Downshire FC eventually won the first ever of what came to be known as the primerio liga 10 years later.
The sport was a success with at present the league consisting of ten teams. There are no real leagues outside the primerio liga and therefore no teams can currently be relegated, instead the Managing Directors of each club along with sports minister (no FA yet) decided that only teams with an average attendance of 8 000 or more are to be allowed to play in the primerio liga. This was how the first eight teams were chosen, with Seymour Hill and Crewe being added 15 and 20 years later respectivly after the first season.
