The Empire of Lysandus is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Regent with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, daily referendums, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 18.585 billion Lysandais 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Citadel of Bardan. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Lysandais economy, worth a remarkable 6,064 trillion solis a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 326,299 solis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cheese has become the new icon of political dissent, ports have ground to a halt as no boat can reach them without trespassing, they say that Lysandais made a dessert and called it peace, and up to 40% of voters can finally read the issues they're deciding on. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lysandus's national animal is the tsercon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Pantarism.

Lysandus is ranked 175,266th in the world and 31st in Novo Brasil for Most Stationary, with 89.05277633952 days.
