The Constitutional Monarchy of Lasfritas is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by King Lasfritas the 1st with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and national health service. The compassionate population of 1.304 billion Lasfritasians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwlll. The average income tax rate is 56.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Lasfritasian economy, worth 137 trillion LasPounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 105,234 LasPounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams, the new 'Who Wants To Be A Politician' election debate auditions are more popular than the debates themselves, beatboxing has replaced the 'Wilhelm scream' as the nation's most popular sound effect, and blind dates reemerge as a necessary evil in the quest for love. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lasfritas's national animal is the Swan, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cult of the Octopus.

Lasfritas is ranked 267,845^th in the world and 1,221^st in Europeia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.25 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
