The Dominion of Loasiru is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.594 billion Loasiruans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 63.2%.

The all-consuming Loasiruan economy, worth 171 trillion rupees a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 107,531 rupees, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.

Large wigs have been banned for having racist implications, online weather reports are predicting five years of glorious sunshine for Loasiru, newspapers print only headlines, and cheese lovers have a case of the bleus. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Loasiru's national animal is the horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Loasiru is ranked 96,672^nd in the world and 8^th in The Slumber for Highest Poor Incomes, with 31,682.81 Standard Monetary Units.
