The Republic of Lysstopia is a very large, safe nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and daily referendums. The compassionate population of 243 million Lysstopians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 30.1%.

The Lysstopian economy, worth 12.5 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,372 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Society and government have been organized according to a feudal hierarchy, lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed, asking what someone does for a living is considered a faux pax for being potentially jobist, and construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lysstopia's national animal is the Pigeon.

Lysstopia is ranked 87,078^th in the world and 79^th in Benigtopia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,686.26 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
