The Dreamland of Lamos is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Facto with an even hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, state-planned economy, and complete lack of prisons. The quiet, industrious population of 29.801 billion Lamosians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Public Transport, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hypso. The average income tax rate is 63.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Lamosian economy, worth 483 trillion Lams 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, quite specialized black market in Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Retail, Soda Sales, and Basket Weaving. 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 16,218 Lams, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People have to sneak out of the country in order to have sex, Nino has been named as Lamos's national religion, Facto has just been declared ruler of Lamos in an international press conference, and Lamos has designated Hypso as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lamos's national animal is the lama, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Nino.

Lamos is ranked 236,413^th in the world and 21^st in Anville for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -2.83 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
