The Associated Fleets of Booty Lagoon is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Captain Bang Tandem with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 2.123 billion Freebooters 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, outspoken government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Industry, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Heart of Gold. The average income tax rate is 7.3%.

The thriving Nautical economy, worth 154 trillion Gold Doubloons a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 72,942 Gold Doubloons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Cyber-crime and tin-foil hat sales are both increasing at record rates, Captain Bang Tandem's Twitcher account is typically used to share Kraken memes rather than government policy, saying "don't do anything that Captain Bang Tandem wouldn't do" doesn't exclude a great deal, and the nation is so apathetic that Freebooters can barely find the energy to bring new issues to the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Booty Lagoon's national animal is the Kraken, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is The Pirate Code.

Booty Lagoon is ranked 157,241st in the world and 5,425th in Osiris for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 717.22 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
