The Theocracy of LeStroopWaffel is a fledgling, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 6 million LeStroopWaffelians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 7.7%.

The strong LeStroopWaffelian economy, worth 307 billion Stroopwaffels a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 51,227 Stroopwaffels, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. LeStroopWaffel's national animal is the Chicken.

LeStroopWaffel is ranked 274,884^th in the world and 16^th in Sycord Plume for Largest Governments, scoring 6.63 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
