The Democratic States of Loeje is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.828 billion Loejer are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tigris. The average income tax rate is 90.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Loejisch economy, worth 290 trillion pounds a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 42,506 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign investment has dropped to a trickle after laws were passed preventing investors from taking their earnings abroad, most citizens in Loeje are abject pyrophobes after extremely graphic pamphlets were mailed nationwide by the government, the 'Museum Of Stuff We Stole' is a tourist favourite, and card players are calling the government's bluff on anti-gambling legislation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Loeje's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Loeje is ranked 24,862nd in the world and 23rd in Union of Christian Nations for Lowest Crime Rates, with 85.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
