The Republic of Latvian State is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Ruhero with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 1.786 billion Latvians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of JaunRīga. The average income tax rate is 70.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Latvian economy, worth 215 trillion Jaunlats a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 120,725 Jaunlats, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Spontaneous nocturnal decapitation is considered 'death by natural causes' for enemies of Latvian State, for 25 Jaunlats tourists can gawk at the site of national tragedy, there's a hole in the heart of every Latvian city, and politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Latvian State's national animal is the Zvirbulis, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Latvian State is ranked 32,657th in the world and 10th in NATO 2022 for Safest, scoring 108.23 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
