The Kingdom of Lower Firlan Octersordia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Luan with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, cynical population of 4.118 billion Lower Firlan Octersordians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of October. The average income tax rate is 93.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lower Firlan Octersordian economy, worth 728 trillion Reais a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 176,948 Reais, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors, elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, foreign leaders who don't applaud Luan's speeches are regarded as enemies of Lower Firlan Octersordia, and arbitration is mightier than the sword. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lower Firlan Octersordia's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Delta.

Lower Firlan Octersordia is ranked 6,148th in the world and 3rd in Council of Asia for Highest Food Quality, scoring 193.05 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
