The Defender Operator of Lara Aurora is a mammoth, safe nation, notable for its prohibition of alcohol, frequent executions, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed population of 8.815 billion Lara Aurorans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 33.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Lara Auroran economy, worth 608 trillion kronor a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,048 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People who stay late at the office often come home to find their own funeral being planned, a bill to outlaw math homework has been submitted, tech-mad citizens think that the laser-powered bread-slicer uPhone App is the coolest thing since sliced bread, and thrift shops are closing their doors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lara Aurora's national animal is the cobra, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Lara Aurora is ranked 142,821^st in the world and 1,069^th in Remembrance for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 452.31 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
