The Confederacy of Southern lamorestan is a large, orderly nation, notable for its state-planned economy, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 187 million Southern lamorestanians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 70.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Southern lamorestanian economy, worth 7.05 trillion Silver Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 37,685 Silver Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It's entirely possible foreign diplomats misheard when Southern lamorestan offered the words "peace be upon you", the government puts forth the claim that harming young girls is wrong, the military is recruiting war criminals to join its weapons research teams, and critical thinking is grounds for expulsion from university. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Southern lamorestan's national animal is the Killer Whale, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Southern lamorestan is ranked 320,808^th in the world and 8^th in OOK OOK for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -11.83 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
