The Commonwealth of Lanzmania is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by DiDi with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cheerful population of 43.436 billion Lanzmanites are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The tiny government prioritizes Education, although Environment is also considered important, while Social Policy and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lanzstadt. The average income tax rate is 1.3%.

The all-consuming Lanzmanian economy, worth a remarkable 4,820 trillion Lanzmarks a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,971 Lanzmarks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Cash-strapped junkies lick rabbits for a cheap high, atheistic refugees haven't got a prayer of being granted asylum, construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground, and government bureaucrats review designs for birdhouses to ensure they do not block the views of neighbors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Lanzmania's national animal is the seagull, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Pastafarianism.

Lanzmania is ranked 50,935th in the world and 3,109th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 73.97 law-abiding acts per hour.
