The Queen's State of Laveta is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 36.956 billion Lavetans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.7%.

The powerhouse Lavetan economy, worth a remarkable 2,138 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and dominated by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 57,868 betales, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 233,218 per year while the poor average 9,596, a ratio of 24.3 to 1.

Citizens are bombarded with advertising from their compulsory minature radios, the government is avowedly atheist, none has been named as Laveta's national religion, and membership in the state-owned Church of Laveta is mandatory and all other faith organisations are banned. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Laveta's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is none.

Laveta is ranked 288,532^nd in the world and 1^st in Laveta for Highest Poor Incomes, with 9,596.82 Standard Monetary Units.
