The Republic of Lawrence County is a large, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 121 million Lawrence Countyians are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The relatively small, liberal, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.8%.

The Lawrence Countyian economy, worth 5.39 trillion rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 44,532 rubles, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Lawrence County's national animal is the dove, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Lawrence County is ranked 270,531^st in the world and 15^th in Counties for Safest, scoring 19.28 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
