The Democratic Republic of Lytiga is a very large, efficient nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 180 million Lytigans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Spirituality, and Welfare also on the agenda, while International Aid and Social Policy are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 21.5%.

The strong Lytigan economy, worth 13.6 trillion Deneroes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 75,349 Deneroes, with the richest citizens earning 9.6 times as much as the poorest.

Concert pianists lie about their occupation to avoid ridicule, bad punctuation has come to a full stop, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, and CSI Forest is this year's hit new crime show. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lytiga's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Lytiga is ranked 154,563^rd in the world and 259^th in The League for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 356.87 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
