The Chess Federation of Lemsrow is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by ID Sir Bahamut London Asnatag IV with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, keen interest in outer space, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.907 billion Lesmoris are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Larshavink. The average income tax rate is 96.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Lemsrowian economy, worth 560 trillion Pecratian Illocos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 192,848 Pecratian Illocos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

School lockers are filled with fancy underwear, heirs who take too long in the bathroom are declared missing and presumed dead, the combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage, and etiquette guides advise visitors to 'grovel gracefully'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lemsrow's national animal is the Zagreb-Manila-Fort Bald Kosmo Dragoneer, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Galactianism.

Lemsrow is ranked 264,984^th in the world and 13,689^th in The North Pacific for Highest Crime Rates, with 1.55 crimes per hour.
