The Equestrian Republic of Lacari is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Arlen Kade with a fair hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.459 billion Lacarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ciliana. The average income tax rate is 70.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Lacarian economy, worth 101 trillion Lacarian Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,756 Lacarian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Loudmouthed journalists are given the chop, carrots are orange, apples are red and food waste is increasing, recent events in Dàguó have been classified 'for Arlen Kade's eyes only', and police regularly arrest families playing Monopoly. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lacari's national animal is the Silver Mustang, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lacari is ranked 288,490^th in the world and 109^th in Sancturia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -6.69 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
