The Kingdom of Lancifolium is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, parental licensing program, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 896 million Lancifoliumians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Administration, and Spirituality also on the agenda, while International Aid isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lavandula. The average income tax rate is 27.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Lancifoliumian economy, worth 72.3 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. Average income is 80,714 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous, it's best not to ask what goes into Lavandula Fried Chicken's secret blend of herbs and spices, sheepish teenagers are making eye contact with their parents for the first time in a decade during state-enforced 'no-phones hour', and real power lies not in the debating room but with those who decide what is debated. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Lancifolium's national animal is the Thick-billed raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Lancifolium is ranked 75,674^th in the world and 262^nd in the Plains of Perdition for Most Developed, scoring 68.56 on the Human Development Index.
