The Republic of Lorione is a massive, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning dove population. The hard-working population of 3.696 billion Lorioneans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 27.9%.

The Lorionean economy, worth 132 trillion guilders a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 35,744 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lorione's national animal is the dove.

Lorione is ranked 133,255^th in the world and 5^th in Aelstun for Largest Populations, with 3.70 billion capita.
