The Scandinavian Realm of Lagene is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Marino Hressiön with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.696 billion Lageneans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stör. The average income tax rate is 78.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lagenean economy, worth 158 trillion Eunes a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 93,694 Eunes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists, late night adverts for breast milk co-ops regularly win pornography industry awards, stone wrist watches that weigh 20lb are the latest trend, and small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lagene's national animal is the Banana Slug, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is None.

Lagene is ranked 246,153rd in the world and 931st in Europe for Fattest Citizens, with 8.29 Obesity Rate.
