The Monarchy of The Kingdom of Lorule is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Princess Hilda with an iron fist, and notable for its prohibition of alcohol, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 12.335 billion Loruleans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Industry, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lorule Castle Town. The average income tax rate is 82.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lorulian economy, worth a remarkable 1,879 trillion Rupees a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 152,404 Rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Street cleaners are noticeably glum during jubilee celebrations, arts classes now teach children how to sketch the perfect sine curve, saying 'Hi Guys' to a mixed gender group of people at work is a fireable offense, and schoolchildren tunnel out to skip classes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The Kingdom of Lorule's national animal is the Cucco, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hylia and the three Golden Goddesses.

The Kingdom of Lorule is ranked 5,525th in the world and 4th in Anime Nations Against Liberals for Most Developed, scoring 94.06 on the Human Development Index.
