To conservative/religious redditors with liberal/atheist parents: What's your story?

I'd love to live an authoritarian government if it aligned with my beliefs. I've always fantasised about having my own liberal, authoritarian, socialist theocracy which I would rule. I could design propaganda and have posters up, make my own flag, have an official government uniform (it would be a button up shirt made out of white or light blue bath towel material with silver square buttons and a circular collar, with tan trousers, a white sailor's cap with a short vertical cylinder coming out around the top, and a tie), and I'd also be the lord mayor of the capital city, so I'd give the streets cool and dignified names, have a really cool iconic architectural style, and there would be a cool Soviet-style post modern clock tower in the main city square with a cross on top, with huge, grey, menacing Gothic-style cathedrals surrounding it. We would be really big on castles of all different styles as well. But it would be a nice and pretty free kingdom. There'd be no death penalty, freedom of religion (though the laws and culture would be heavily influenced by Christianity), a true democracy with compulsory voting and monthly referenda, and the legal system would aim to . The courts would be blind (through audio communication only), so people would be judged on their acts, and the judge/jury would not be able to see the race, sex or any irrelevant information to the case. Also everything would be state-owned and run including power, internet and phone, water, banks, mass transit, the media, the food industry and the postal service. The idea that there could be millions of brands of rice on the shelves in supermarkets depresses me, so all products would be state-branded and entrepreneurs would pitch product ideas to us. We would be a kingdom, so if I thought someone was cool and a friend to the country, I could make them a knight and they might get free parking and a special pin or something.

So, who has a few hundred square miles of land and a few billion dollars they're keen to donate?
