The Republic of Langlesia is a small, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 45 million Langlesians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government prioritizes Spirituality, although Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 10.0%.

The very strong Langlesian economy, worth 2.75 trillion Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 61,130 Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Shanty towns are forming in the suburbs of major cities, the government loves seeing the little people fight, televisions are often seized to pay for overdue television license fees, and it is believed that belligerence is a passing phase foreign leaders will soon outgrow. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force. Langlesia's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Langlesia is ranked 268,186^th in the world and 781^st in 10000 Islands for Largest Populations, with 45.0 million capita.
