The Rightly Guided Jamahuriyeh of Lysheim is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Amal Ayad with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 16.578 billion Lyshians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The relatively small, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bei'mujeen. The average income tax rate is 71.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lysheimian economy, worth a remarkable 4,263 trillion Dinars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 257,191 Dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins, serial commas clarify the relationship between one's lackeys, the taxpayers, and kinsfolk, Goldilocks has found a lucrative career as a zoning consultant, and Amal Ayad's used car is held together by bumper stickers that support the opposition. Crime is totally unknown. Lysheim's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Islam.

Lysheim is ranked 55,625^th in the world and 44^th in Gay for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,798.73 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
