The Republic of Lankats is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The cynical population of 1.838 billion Lankatsians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Healthcare, and Welfare also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 48.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Lankatsian economy, worth 107 trillion dollars a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 58,006 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, every day at 4am Lankatsians wake to pray for the sun to rise, state media features lively debates such as whether pineapple on pizza is an acceptable topping, and tax assessment offices double as polling stations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lankats's national animal is the aplix, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lankats is ranked 240,010^th in the world and 954^th in Concord for Least Corrupt Governments, with 91.11 percentage of bribes refused.
