The Colony of Lori is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 2.505 billion Lorians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 7.9%.

The Lorian economy, worth 138 trillion aurums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Tourism. Average income is 55,247 aurums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Surveillance cameras are banned and hiding wrinkles with make-up is illegal. Crime is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Lori's national animal is the bovina, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Lori is ranked 92,889^th in the world and 3^rd in North Rhine Westphalia for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 3,585.41 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
