The Democratic Region of Lorania is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Prime Minister with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working population of 8.251 billion Loranians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Loranium. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.

The strong Loranian economy, worth 417 trillion Lorubledollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Soda Sales. Average income is 50,589 Lorubledollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 330,351 per year while the poor average 3,058, a ratio of 108 to 1.

The mentally ill are given high powered automatic weapons for "catharsis therapy", programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, The Prime Minister is the self-declared God of all Lorania, and The Prime Minister has been known to threaten dissenting citizens with a machine gun at press conferences. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Lorania's national animal is the banana duck, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities, and its national religion is BANDUC.

Lorania is ranked 81,494th in the world and 1st in Lorania for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 46,542.57 Standard Monetary Units.
