The Psychotic Utopia of Lower Southeast Corner is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Red Leader with an iron fist, and notable for its fear of technology, anti-smoking policies, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.232 billion Losexians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it prioritizes Law & Order, with Education, Administration, and Defense also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oppression Central. The average income tax rate is 97.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Losexian economy, worth a remarkable 1,262 trillion red nuggets a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, extremely specialized black market in Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 136,756 red nuggets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Those who sing the national anthem off-key have the key thrown away, only women may wear the crown of Lower Southeast Corner, citizens worry more about a split end than their deceased parent, and the government is proudly free of crabs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lower Southeast Corner's national animal is the red dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Leaderism.

Lower Southeast Corner is ranked 3,078th in the world and 1st in XS IV for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 97.66 Effective Tax Rate.
