The Bi-ronic Vampire Hunters of Lothria is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by The Gaunt with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, zero percent divorce rate, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 7.076 billion Lothishes are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Erren's Grave. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.5%.

The thriving Lothrian economy, worth 490 trillion Crowns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 69,384 Crowns, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 499,118 per year while the poor average 3,106, a ratio of 160 to 1.

Lothrian actors literally work from cradle to grave, fast-food chefs regularly win Health Innovation Awards for spitting on burgers, having only one wallet stolen in a day is considered a cause for celebration, and millionaires are surprised to find they are eligible for government handouts. Crime is a serious problem. Lothria's national animal is the Raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is The Hanged Gods.

Lothria is ranked 78,778^th in the world and 1^st in Tellos for Largest Black Market, with 4.56 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
