The Crowned Soviet Republic of Loptia is a mammoth, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 5.94 billion Loptians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.

The very strong Loptian economy, worth 414 trillion Credits a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 69,759 Credits, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 281,380 per year while the poor average 11,552, a ratio of 24.4 to 1.

Feuilletons can only be deciphered with a Galliennais dictionary, it can be a real jungle in a modern courtroom, dogs are encouraged to confront the psychodynamic roots of their desire to be "good boys", and the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Loptia's national animal is the Goose, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Loptia is ranked 195,488^th in the world and 1^st in Ongezellig for Least Corrupt Governments, with 92.73 percentage of bribes refused.
