The Kingdom of Latverya is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, public floggings, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 407 million Latverians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 42.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Latverian economy, worth 18.8 trillion Latverian Francs a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 46,265 Latverian Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many politicians are serving jail time for minor drug offenses, homeless people dying of starvation are thought to be a necessary cost of preventing terrorism, when flight control tells pilots to alter course the usual reply is "No, YOU move!", and athletic teenagers are among the wealthiest members of society. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Latverya's national animal is the Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Latverya is ranked 266,966th in the world and 4,722nd in the South Pacific for Most Average, scoring 22.16 on the Average Standardized Normality Scale.
