The Empire of Lanceium is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, suspicion of poets, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 306 million Lanceiumians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Industry, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid and Social Policy receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.3%.

The thriving Lanceiumian economy, worth 13.7 trillion chicken bakeses a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Trout Farming, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 44,838 chicken bakeses, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 195,419 per year while the poor average 6,506, a ratio of 30.0 to 1.

Calling tech support mid-shootout is a common occurrence, rare art has become a significant factor in negotiating all foreign trade agreements, children are often observed making 'sand angels' in bunkers, and the sparkling rainbow has become a symbol of far-right extremism. Crime is a problem. Lanceium's national animal is the rizzler, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Lanceium is ranked 292,040th in the world and 4,682nd in The East Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -5.8 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
