The Lyrasayn Warzone Liason of Lyrasol is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by High Councillor Liv Ortega with an even hand, and renowned for its public floggings, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The devout population of 3.669 billion Lyrasolians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gallior City. The average income tax rate is 67.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Lyrasolian economy, worth 110 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 30,227 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The dish 'poisson avec poison' is only available on the black market, there's a bright dawn ahead for Lyrasol, museums offer moralization or your money back, and internet searches for the inventor of the three-wheeled steam-powered Lyrasolian weed picker are way up. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lyrasol's national animal is the Earthworm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lyrasol is ranked 260,534th in the world and 8th in Warzone Airspace for Most Cultured, scoring 61 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
