The New Hyperian Piratocracy of Laurentus States is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Laurentus with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, sprawling nuclear power plants, and digital currency. The compassionate, humorless population of 13.743 billion Laurentians 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, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lumenera. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Laurentian economy, worth a remarkable 5,001 trillion sovereigns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 363,912 sovereigns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Immigrants who don't like the taste of Laurentian Turnip Chips are immediately deported, gift hampers filled with delicious beef jerky are sent to newly communist nations, out-of-work soldiers and bureaucrats can often be found camped out in front of manservant academies, and any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Laurentus States's national animal is the Desert Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is None.

Laurentus States is ranked 1,565^th in the world and 3^rd in Wintreath for Safest, scoring 153.27 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
