The Lyrasayn Warzone Liason of Lyrasol is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by High Councillor Liv Ortega with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, complete lack of prisons, and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 3.715 billion Lyrasolians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gallior City. The average income tax rate is 67.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Lyrasolian economy, worth 148 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. 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 39,848 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lyrasolians ask their doctors whether chili peppers are right for them, ambitious "businessmen" use their children to sell and advertise their products, it is illegal to brush crumbs off your clothing outdoors, and Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lyrasol's national animal is the Earthworm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lyrasol is ranked 233,743rd in the world and 5th in Warzone Airspace for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -4.84 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
