The Dictatorship of Lazy Sal is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 444 million Sals enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Education is also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.3%.

The strong lazy economy, worth 29.9 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 67,296 dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 441,385 per year while the poor average 4,017, a ratio of 109 to 1.

Surveillance cameras are banned, public incontinence is a growing problem amongst the nation's women, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and employers may fire workers without giving any reason. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Lazy Sal's national animal is the burger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Lazy Sal is ranked 303,270^th in the world and 4,453^rd in Ambition for Safest, scoring 6.96 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
