The Occasional Activity of Lazy Gyant is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Lord Powernap with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.541 billion Slackers 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 Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Naptown. The average income tax rate is 50.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Lazy economy, worth 258 trillion winks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Gambling. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 101,753 winks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Soldiers go to war dressed in cassocks and robes, soldiers find that home gadgets and power tools are more effective as improvised weapons than the guns they've been issued, street crime is on the rise as police officers spend most of their time in prisons, and sociologists ponder how baby-napped ethnic minority 'runaways' could have gone so bad so soon. Crime is totally unknown. Lazy Gyant's national animal is the sloth, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Theosomnia.

Lazy Gyant is ranked 64,402^nd in the world and 10^th in The Nationstates Assembly for Largest Governments, scoring 20.1 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
