The Colony of La card 14 is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.703 billion La card 14ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 48.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming La card 14ian economy, worth 179 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 105,376 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

The combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage, male cubicle workers stand up every time a woman enters the room, programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, and the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. La card 14's national animal is the porpoise, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

La card 14 is ranked 190,853^rd in the world and 7,236^th in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -1.41 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
