The Blaumond und Reichsadler of Lemsrow is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by The Blue Moon with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, punitive income tax rates, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, cheerful population of 12.204 billion Lemsrownians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Larshavinkstadt. The average income tax rate is 99.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Lemsrowian economy, worth a remarkable 3,314 trillion Peßcants 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 271,625 Peßcants, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Court cases mostly involve lawyers shouting questions at witnesses giving silent shrugs, traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, the Lemsrowian war navy contains an oddly large number of luxury yachts and cruise liners, and the nation's new Mylab space station is notorious for being the loneliest place above the planet. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lemsrow's national animal is the Cosmos Dragoneer, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Galactic Societies.

Lemsrow is ranked 1,556th in the world and 1st in Trica for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 902.97 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
