The Incorporated States of Liraso is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its frequent executions, smutty television, and state-planned economy. The compassionate population of 219 million Lirasoans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 48.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Lirasoan economy, worth 11.1 trillion lire a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 50,520 lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

No personal detail is too tiny for the suede-denim census police, government fact-checkers use surprising amounts of high explosive, telling someone to 'break a leg' is considered a criminal inducement to self harm, and the government decides its policies by observing the flight of birds. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Liraso's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Liraso is ranked 245,895^th in the world and 72^nd in Hive for Largest Populations, with 219 million capita.
