The Colony of South litore is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, state-planned economy, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.17 billion South litoreanses 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 Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Litores. The average income tax rate is 58.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The South litoreanes economy, worth 117 trillion Kakapos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 54,093 Kakapos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sales of pregnancy testing kits are booming, televisions are often seized to pay for overdue television license fees, boats straying just metres away from the shore will raise the ire of the Coast Guard, and sniffer dogs are trained to follow clouds of fruity-smelling vapor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. South litore's national animal is the Kakapo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

South litore is ranked 26,859th in the world and 30th in Arctica for Highest Food Quality, scoring 84.05 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
