The Christian Republic of Letitflood is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by President Jameson with an iron fist, and renowned for its digital currency, frequent executions, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.668 billion Letitfloodians 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, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important, while Social Policy and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Deluge. The average income tax rate is 36.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Letitfloodian economy, worth 281 trillion Letitfloodian pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 168,835 Letitfloodian pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Decongestants have replaced Letitfloodian pounds in street transactions, adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, schoolboys who turn to watch pretty girls go by are given detention, and children's toy tractors have been seized as state property. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Letitflood's national animal is the Letitfloodian buzzard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Christianity.

Letitflood is ranked 296,186^th in the world and 71^st in Cape of Good Hope for Most Primitive, scoring -265.02 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
