The Federation of Las Terrenas is a large, genial nation, notable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 104 million Las Terrenasians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 68.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Las Terrenasian economy, worth 1.06 trillion Palmos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 10,164 Palmos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Las Terrenas's national animal is the Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Las Terrenas is ranked 321,512^th in the world and 1,004^th in Concord for Largest Black Market, with 2.00 billion Standard Monetary Units.
