The Grand Republic of Lorthos is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Darius Thorne with a fair hand, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.574 billion Lorthosians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Haven. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Lorthosian economy, worth 291 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 81,546 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Saying 'Hi Guys' to a mixed gender group of people at work is a fireable offense, the world still seems flat to some people in space, the nation's war memorials are being torn down and replaced with peace gardens, and organ donation is compulsory. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lorthos's national animal is the Kraken, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Secular.

Lorthos is ranked 128,582nd in the world and 9th in Kavonia for Most Stationary, with 259.19425772668 days.
