The Free Land of Ladita is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 125 million Laditans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 51.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Laditan economy, worth 8.70 trillion rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Trout Farming, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,599 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens recently voted in favour of declaring bubblewrap an 'abomination of nature', heavy industry must go to expensive lengths to dispose of waste, every spring railroad foundations erode to reveal human remains, and politicians tend to jump ship to whichever party is currently leading in the polls. Crime is totally unknown. Ladita's national animal is the camel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ladita is ranked 137,533^rd in the world and 144^th in Refugia for Highest Wealthy Incomes, with 108,063 Standard Monetary Units.
