The Imperium Tyrium of Letiutin is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor François de Tyrié V with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, sprawling nuclear power plants, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 19.776 billion Letiuti 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pari. The average income tax rate is 28.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Letiuti economy, worth a remarkable 3,687 trillion Rodins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 186,448 Rodins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Scientists are researching the best way to kill off humanity to prevent catastrophic war, raindances intended to summon storms instead attract tourists, there have been sightings of people walking around dressed in nothing but leopard-skin g-strings for 'religious reasons', and even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Letiutin's national animal is the Pale Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cyanism.

Letiutin is ranked 261,524^th in the world and 109^th in Aceon for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -5.87 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
