The Crazy Tranquilly of Lac Valley is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Giovanni Aldini with an even hand, and notable for its aversion to nipples, pith helmet sales, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 24.285 billion Lac Valleyians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of London. The average income tax rate is 69.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Lac Valleyian economy, worth a remarkable 3,593 trillion grubs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 147,960 grubs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

The intelligence community is playing 4-D chess with an imaginary spy network, the government funds large training centres to turn glow worms into functioning members of society, commuters and their desktops both bemoan their hard drives, and children spend all morning taking out a comma and all afternoon putting it back in again. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lac Valley's national animal is the glow worm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Scientology.

Lac Valley is ranked 1,492^nd in the world and 2^nd in Travelling Region for Lowest Crime Rates, with 82.22 law-abiding acts per hour.
