The Radically Inclusive Homeland of The Lavender Country is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Frida Lovall with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, state-planned economy, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 11.048 billion Lavenderians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Queer Lake. The average income tax rate is 63.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Lavenderian economy, worth a remarkable 1,081 trillion ¥escas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 97,910 ¥escas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Young and brooding teens are welcomed with open arms to the Dogwarts School of Strangeness and Sorcery, the revelation that people were sexist in the past is apparently front page news, parking lots are littered with coffee cups and doughnut crumbs, and Frida Lovall's exquisite office door is replaced monthly due to angry petitioners. Crime is totally unknown. The Lavender Country's national animal is the Tuxedo Swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Secularism.

The Lavender Country is ranked 51,634th in the world and 40th in International Democratic Union for Lowest Crime Rates, with 73.71 law-abiding acts per hour.
