The State of Lyz is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 33.36 billion Lyzers live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government is dominated by the Department of Education, although Spirituality, Healthcare, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Social Policy and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.6%.
The very strong Lyzian economy, worth a remarkable 1,404 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 42,113 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 273,003 per year while the poor average 2,598, a ratio of 105 to 1.
The streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, televangelists flaunt their expensive cars when they attend charity events, sales of fishnet stockings have reached a record high, and Lyz has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Lyz's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Lyz is ranked 39,311th in the world and 58th in Ancient Lands for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 6,111.53 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
