The Free Land of Lobstone is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Sr Lagosta with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate population of 7.389 billion Lobstonians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lagostal. The average income tax rate is 67.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Lobstonian economy, worth 570 trillion Paus a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. Average income is 77,207 Paus, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There is one competing standard, posh restaurants scatter glass fragments on the dining room floor to keep out barefoot undesirables, the reams of paperwork accompanying any electronic item are a recognised contributor to national deforestation, and funerals are often rudely interrupted by juggling clowns shouting for volunteers from the audience. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lobstone's national animal is the Lobster, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is The Lobster Cult.

Lobstone is ranked 290,845^th in the world and 111^th in Portugal for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -10.08 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
