The Most Serene Republic of Latroia is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 4.411 billion Latroians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.3%.

The very strong Latroian economy, worth 222 trillion guilders a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Book Publishing, and Soda Sales. Average income is 50,372 guilders, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 190,390 per year while the poor average 9,272, a ratio of 20.5 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Latroia's national animal is the giraffe, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Latroia is ranked 155,363^rd in the world and 5,433^rd in Osiris for Most Armed, with 0.32 weapons per person.
