The Republic of Lanorian is a titanic, genial nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working population of 21.228 billion Lanorianians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 25.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Lanorianian economy, worth a remarkable 1,205 trillion Lanores a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 56,789 Lanores, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Companies flee the nation rather than pay their fair share of taxes, consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, fancy dress parties are raided by military police for new recruits, and protests are legal but strictly supervised. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lanorian's national animal is the Bob Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lanorian is ranked 197,861^st in the world and 3^rd in HYDRA Command for Highest Workforce Participation Rate, with 66.59 Workforce Participation Rate.
