The District of Lysel is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Liard with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, suspicion of poets, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 17.263 billion Lysalians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.5%.

The strong Lyselian economy, worth a remarkable 1,052 trillion aurums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is 60,971 aurums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 414,530 per year while the poor average 3,276, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Liard has just been declared ruler of Lysel in an international press conference, the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, dealers go from pushing drugs to pushing up daisies, and Liard is convinced that other nations can simply be "junked" (Lysel has found 1 easter egg). Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Lysel's national animal is the bovina, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Lysel is ranked 6,773rd in the world and 1st in Nashville for Most Stationary, with 2,839.29240507392 days.
