The Second Federal Republic of Liravia is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, prohibition of alcohol, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 577 million Liravians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aquae City. The average income tax rate is 60.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Liravian economy, worth 76.1 trillion Marulas a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 131,929 Marulas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dogman-branded weapons are all the rage in the militaristic comic-book community, the Counter-Terrorism Unit has been nicknamed "Big Bad Wolf" for its tendency towards urban demolition, dinosaur breeders have a yabba-dabba-doo gay old time in Liravia, and bleach is the nation's most common pesticide. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Liravia's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Liravia is ranked 23,026^th in the world and 6^th in The Creeds for Most Beautiful Environments, with 947.48 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
