The People's Republic of Llorens is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by President Fraser Zilberschlag with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.766 billion Llorenians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zexaro. The average income tax rate is 99.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Llorenian economy, worth 383 trillion llorençs a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. Average income is an impressive 138,507 llorençs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dubiously qualified Skandilundian barristers keep referring to laws as 'government guidelines', Zexaro's main city thoroughfare has been blocked by a row of leyland cypresses that mysteriously appeared overnight, the nation's only university is the School of Hard Knocks, and elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Llorens's national animal is the loquito, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Llorens is ranked 151,885^th in the world and 147^th in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring -41.46 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
