The Last Bastion of Civilization of Lacuna is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, democratic population of 21.359 billion Lacunians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lacuna City. The average income tax rate is 87.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Lacunan economy, worth a remarkable 3,171 trillion Naughts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 148,492 Naughts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, the nation is committed to nuclear rearmament, Lacunan tourists are encouraged to hand out spare condoms to locals while on vacation, and primary candidates are replaced if they fail to compliment Leader's hair. Crime is totally unknown. Lacuna's national animal is the Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Lacuna is ranked 11,318^th in the world and 229^th in 10000 Islands for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 371.56 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
