The Borderlands of Lost Memories is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Clavis Memoriae with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 14.975 billion Lost Memories are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — prioritizes Environment, although Education, Public Transport, and Social Policy are also considered important, while Defense is ignored. The average income tax rate is 75.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Forgotten economy, worth 635 trillion Cherries a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 42,406 Cherries, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Mandatory neutering has made purebred dogs a thing of the past, families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, educators and parents alike are allowing children to view the internet again after violent videos were purged, and antique comic book collectors are disappointed to hear that their treasures are worth exactly as little as their mothers said they were. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lost Memories's national animal is the Fruit Tree, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Lost Memories is ranked 44,510^th in the world and 6^th in Glitch for Largest Governments, scoring 18.84 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
