The Rats on Drugs of Ladratia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Science with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, free-roaming dinosaurs, and public floggings. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 3.205 billion Ladratians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Defense, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hotal'kan. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Ladratian economy, worth 676 trillion Quarterly Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 210,948 Quarterly Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Left-wing militias train children how to properly burn down banks, many mayors are barely in office before being kicked out for minor parking violations, nuclear warheads are frequently launched into space as a warning to invading meteoroids, and vegetables are crisper thanks to CRISPR. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ladratia's national animal is the Cavia porcellus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is a culture of pursuing novel living.

Ladratia is ranked 315,443^rd in the world and 790^th in Carcassonne for Most Primitive, scoring -989.64 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
