The Dominion of Lorbian is a large, cultured nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, unlimited-speed roads, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 123 million Lorbianians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 45.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Lorbianian economy, worth 4.03 trillion florins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 32,733 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, at least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to Leader's wardrobe, the Smalltopian embassy doubles as an electoral campaign headquarters, and citizens sell their moldy bread as homemade penicillin. Crime is totally unknown. Lorbian's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lorbian is ranked 311,586th in the world and 7th in Supa Squad for Largest Black Market, with 7.00 billion Standard Monetary Units.
