The Dominion of Lerasi is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, keen interest in outer space, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 421 million Lerasians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dolorem. The average income tax rate is 61.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Lerasian economy, worth 17.5 trillion drakes a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,516 drakes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Former arms manufacturing CEOs are now delivering food for minimum wage, citizens who don't attend the nation's massive military parades tend to disappear overnight, military pilots spend more time scraping feathers off their engines than flying their aircraft, and the government burgles the houses of holidaying citizens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lerasi's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Lerasi is ranked 29,776^th in the world and 866^th in The East Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 756.57 Pounds Of Wildlife Per Square Mile.
