The Republic of Lars Erimican is a massive, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning cobra population. The hard-working population of 4.55 billion Lars Erimicanians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 13.8%.

The Lars Erimicanian economy, worth 225 trillion lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 49,484 lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lars Erimican's national animal is the cobra, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Lars Erimican is ranked 215,160^th in the world and 13^th in The Commonwealth of Crowns for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 30 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
