The Kingdom of Literian is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Skydon with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.193 billion Literians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of D'Amare. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Literianian economy, worth a remarkable 1,308 trillion Armonds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 181,857 Armonds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, computer users are buried daily in thousands of unsolicited emails, chickens frolic freely on swings and roundabouts in D'Amare's playgrounds, and people who have had childhood imaginary friends are told they can't ever be trusted with guns. Crime is totally unknown. Literian's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Literian is ranked 288,602nd in the world and 11,233rd in Lazarus for Most Primitive, scoring -569.84 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
