The People and Government of Legalese is a gargantuan, economically powerful nation, ruled by The High Court of Legalese with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service. Its quiet, industrious population of 11.381 billion enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Equality, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Legalese City. The average income tax rate is 96%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, followed by Uranium Mining and Tourism.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, Legalese is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, and the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Legalese's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is The Legal Cult of Margaret, and its currency is the Legal Exchange Unit.

Legalese is ranked 178th in Atlantian Oceania and 100,559th in the world for Most Pacifist, scoring -82 on the Lennon-Springsteen Scale.
