The Kloktarian Häaji of LePiaz is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Erik-Orän Jannéz with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, zero percent divorce rate, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.81 billion LePiazis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Légrétä-en-Malz. The average income tax rate is 68.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Kloktarian economy, worth 426 trillion aqualë potaters a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 111,899 aqualë potaters, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nobody knows why the caged pae sings, old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, elderly tribespeople die in bed surrounded by loved ones and linguists, and student athletes gaze forlornly at abandoned paeball fields. Crime is totally unknown. LePiaz's national animal is the pae, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

LePiaz is ranked 199,111^th in the world and 34^th in Estalcia for Largest Black Market, with 498 billion Standard Monetary Units.
