The Theocratic Kingdom of Lordaguard is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by King Steven I with an iron fist, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, keen interest in outer space, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.589 billion Lordaguardians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lordicea. The average income tax rate is 5.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Lordaguardian economy, worth 881 trillion Christas a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 83,217 Christas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The Lordaguardian Intelligence Agency relies on internet search engines to know what is happening overseas, possession of tomato seeds with intent to garden is a criminal offence, forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies, and the nation frequently scolds its subject territories for staying up past bedtime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Lordaguard's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Judeo-Christian Orthodoxy.

Lordaguard is ranked 186,927th in the world and 4,376th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 67.4786720914 days.
