The Superior Goat Nation of Lanagon is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Kozel with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, state-planned economy, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 28.955 billion Lanagonians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lanagonia. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The powerhouse Lanagonian economy, worth a remarkable 3,417 trillion goats a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an impressive 118,018 goats, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

International tensions are high as Lanagon threatens any government with the audacity to arrest its citizens, all new "spies" are fifteen-year-old acne-ridden kids on computers, dozens of additional foreign policy specialists have been sent to the country's WA Mission, and the military has grudgingly released all top secret information in an effort for greater transparency. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lanagon's national animal is the goat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Lanagon is ranked 289,390th in the world and 5,091st in The East Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -23.96 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
