The Eiserne and Ewige of Lionsroar is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Eiserne Paw with an iron fist, and remarkable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 3.519 billion Lionroarians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Golden Glowing Halls of the RMB. The average income tax rate is 87.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lionroarian economy, worth 539 trillion Suppressed Tears a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 153,318 Suppressed Tears, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Sending sick politicians "Get Well Soon" cards is considered bribery, cotton candy made from genuine cotton cellulose doesn't quite satisfy, school lunches are made with hypo-allergenic wood pulp, and it is illegal to liberate slaves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lionsroar's national animal is the Long-maned Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is catsuperiority.

Lionsroar is ranked 5,750^th in the world and 271^st in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 113.1 law-abiding acts per hour.
