The Democratic Federation of Lauchenoiria is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Josephine Alvarez with a fair hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 14.702 billion Lauchenoirians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Buttercity. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lauchenoirian economy, worth a remarkable 1,976 trillion pesos a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 134,465 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, Josephine Alvarez's campaign events reach their climax when the celebrity endorsers reveal themselves, political clichés like "band-aid solutions" and "adrenaline shots to the economy" are headed for the dumpster, and promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lauchenoiria's national animal is the butterfly, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheism.

Lauchenoiria is ranked 6,636th in the world and 7th in International Democratic Union for Lowest Crime Rates, with 109.8 law-abiding acts per hour.
