The Republic of The Lazarene Republic is a colossal, pleasant nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working population of 3.846 billion Lazarene Republicians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 10.7%.

The Lazarene Republician economy, worth 198 trillion reais a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Basket Weaving, and Soda Sales. Average income is 51,591 reais, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Lazarene Republic's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

The Lazarene Republic is ranked 162,967^th in the world and 8,389^th in Balder for Largest Black Market, with 939 billion Standard Monetary Units.
