The Royal Confederation of Lhat is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Regent Feneck Grehfyia with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.008 billion Lhaticans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novus Pyra. The average income tax rate is 37.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Lhatian economy, worth 593 trillion Crutas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 148,027 Crutas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Opening a bad email attachment can be a major felony, it's not just poseurs who wear oversized sound-cancelling headphones as they walk the city streets, a cat may look at a king and a dude can look at an ass, and conversion therapy coupons are a popular present for coming of age ceremonies. Crime is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Lhat's national animal is the Two Headed Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Carithism.

Lhat is ranked 55,061^st in the world and 115^th in The Wellspring for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 4,016.81 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
