The Republic of Littolyo is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-working, democratic population of 983 million Littolyens hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arennica. The average income tax rate is 56.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Littolyoan economy, worth 85.6 trillion Lyres a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 87,072 Lyres, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Wind farms are erected on shuttered oil platforms, baiting is a national sport, shady doctors seem to have impeccable records, and red rinses are frequently applied to grey hair. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Littolyo's national animal is the Octopus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Littolyo is ranked 122,041^st in the world and 105^th in The Western Isles for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 727.65 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
