The Social Democratic Republic of Lam Tes is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by joh bjelke-petersen with an even hand, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, frequent executions, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, devout population of 7.723 billion Lam Tesians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nanango. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 70.3%.

The Lam Tesian economy, worth 437 trillion Federal Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Cheese Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 56,591 Federal Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 177,468 per year while the poor average 13,827, a ratio of 12.8 to 1.

Basic multiplication is all you need to know to have a child, sexuality-questioning teenagers are placed in locked rooms with dirty magazines and lewd posters, crocodile roadkill is smeared across the asphalt of the new Formula One track, and randomly bombing neighboring countries has become the new national sport. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lam Tes's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Right Wing Populism.

Lam Tes is ranked 58,450^th in the world and 5^th in United Right for Largest Governments, scoring 21.33 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
