The Federation of Laniakea and Primaliya is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its national health service, daily referendums, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 438 million Lannies enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Setekoye Federal City. The average income tax rate is 53.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Laniākean economy, worth 28.3 trillion Solars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 64,505 Solars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's only university is the School of Hard Knocks, Leader's told that love often manifests itself through homicidal four-lettered litanies, treason is relative, and right-wingers complain that too many people are suckling at the welfare teat. Crime is totally unknown. Laniakea and Primaliya's national animal is the crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Laniakea and Primaliya is ranked 77,887th in the world and 1,716th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 68.93 law-abiding acts per hour.
