The Armed Republic of Greater Lamero is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Erich Kopitar with an even hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, sprawling nuclear power plants, and smutty television. The compassionate population of 2.39 billion Greater Lameroans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Trebnje. The average income tax rate is 80.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Greater Lameroan economy, worth 297 trillion Lamer Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 124,583 Lamer Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Surveillance cameras are banned, in life full of care there is no time to stop and stare, glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, and the best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Greater Lamero's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Greater Lamero is ranked 12,121^st in the world and 346^th in the South Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 54.76 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
