The Demonic Overlords of Lavender is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Eris with an iron fist, and notable for its parental licensing program, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 12.61 billion Lavenderians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pittsburg. The average income tax rate is 32.1%.

The all-consuming Lavenderian economy, worth 870 trillion post-they a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 69,033 post-they, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

The roads are notorious throughout the region for their peril, adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, the intelligence community is playing 4-D chess with an imaginary spy network, and foreign musicians that Eris dislikes are turned away at the border. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lavender's national animal is the skittish ferret, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Lavender is ranked 95,695^th in the world and 1,554^th in The North Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 31,989.92 Standard Monetary Units.
