The Extra Low Prices of Food Lion is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, complete lack of public education, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 45.775 billion Food Lionians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The powerhouse Food Lionian economy, worth a remarkable 2,675 trillion double coupons a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 58,439 double coupons, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 254,284 per year while the poor average 8,504, a ratio of 29.9 to 1.

The automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, corporations donate huge sums of money to favored politicians, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Food Lion's national animal is the educated consumer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Food Lion is ranked 1^st in the world and 1^st in 100 Nations of Conquest for Safest, scoring zero on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
