The Luso-Oriental Trade House of Lyassa and Nairoa is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, lack of airports, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 30.506 billion Lyassa and Nairoans 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Environment, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port Nancy. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 72.5%.

The strong Lyassa and Nairoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,876 trillion Crowns a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 61,514 Crowns, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 208,899 per year while the poor average 13,363, a ratio of 15.6 to 1.

Anti-vaxxers are right about the government injecting diseases into people, stone wrist watches that weigh 20lb are the latest trend, thousands of picky mothers-in-law have been recruited to serve as even pickier cookery instructors, and pregnant hitchhikers with signs requesting rides to "competent care" are a common sight on Lyassa and Nairoan roads. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lyassa and Nairoa's national animal is the Cormorant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism and Hinduism.

Lyassa and Nairoa is ranked 36,091^st in the world and 17^th in India for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 6,337.85 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
