The Queendom of Lawang is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Ceres XI with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, public floggings, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 24.042 billion Lawangites enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gateway. The average income tax rate is 3.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lawangite economy, worth a remarkable 8,192 trillion Zens a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 340,740 Zens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Atheistic refugees haven't got a prayer of being granted asylum, asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes, the public are enjoying a royal flush of tax cuts, and wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations". Crime is totally unknown. Lawang's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Aevaism.

Lawang is ranked 331,116^th in the world and 30^th in Anime for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -23.66 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
