The Territorial Area of Lightoller Range is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.955 billion Lightoller Rangeans 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 50.4%.

The thriving Lightoller Rangean economy, worth 193 trillion Territorial Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,854 Territorial Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 322,604 per year while the poor average 22,787, a ratio of 14.2 to 1.

Judicial robes are the country's hottest fashion trend, creating dance remixes is the newest form of conspicuous consumption, money can't buy happiness but it can buy immunity to prosecution, and concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lightoller Range's national animal is the Territorial Dog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Lightoller Range is ranked 43,071^st in the world and 1^st in Lights for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,015.49 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
