The Kingdom of Lagoon is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 705 million Lagoons have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lagoon. The average income tax rate is 16.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Lagoonian economy, worth 30.6 trillion ♪♬♫s a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 43,467 ♪♬♫s, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, the price of takeaway food quadruples after 6pm, nations that kill a Lagoon can expect a strongly worded letter, and citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Lagoon's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Lagoon is ranked 146,905^th in the world and 1,927^th in the West Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,272.06 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
