The Great Angel of Chaos of The Lad is a titanic, orderly nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, national health service, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 10.503 billion Ladians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 43.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Ladian economy, worth 965 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 91,892 Delta Eagles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The dictionary is a common first book for children, half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, ships are encouraged to deliberately run aground onto Ladian beaches, and war criminals are given full state funerals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Lad's national animal is the Kitsune, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Lad is ranked 74,499^th in the world and 6^th in Warzone Sandbox for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,363.15 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
