The Starving Souls of Long Lost Wanderers is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 16.611 billion Long Lost Wanderersians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal morass — juggles the competing demands of International Aid, Social Policy, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 66.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Long Lost Wanderersian economy, worth 357 trillion Tin Cans a year, is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 21,536 Tin Cans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voting is compulsory. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Long Lost Wanderers's national animal is the Nomadic Yak, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Long Lost Wanderers is ranked 184,199^th in the world and 8,138^th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 58.08 law-abiding acts per hour.
