The Republic of Republic of Lorum Ipsum is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 12.088 billion Lorum Ipsumians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of そら都. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Ipsumian economy, worth a remarkable 2,660 trillion かにs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 220,061 かにs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward, the nation has an international reputation for compassion, the 'kind of scrawny' 500 meter hurdle is a popular event, and Lorum Ipsumians seem to be catching more chills. Crime is totally unknown. Republic of Lorum Ipsum's national animal is the Animal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Republic of Lorum Ipsum is ranked 291,256^th in the world and 34^th in USSD for Most Primitive, scoring -785.83 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
