The Crimson Rum Keg of Pirates Lair is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, ruled by The Pirate King with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, parental licensing program, and smutty television. The hard-nosed population of 15.841 billion Pirates have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Shivered Timbers Tavern. The average income tax rate is 26.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Pirate economy, worth 660 trillion Great Bights a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 41,721 Great Bights, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Scenic tours are unheard of after most environmental laws were abolished, the government makes bereaved siblings into bereaved orphans, men's magazines give handy tips on the most effective way to throw heavy stones, and it is a common belief that a sport isn't sport if there are no decapitations. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Pirates Lair's national animal is the French Poodle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Crimson Order.

Pirates Lair is ranked 187,693rd in the world and 2,395th in Artificial Solar System for Most Stationary, with 66.29879784652 days.
