The Republic of Larrys Island4 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its disturbing lack of elderly people, ubiquitous missile silos, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 5.89 billion Larrys Island4ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 76.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Larrys Island4ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,073 trillion baht a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 182,335 baht, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized, the traditional Violetist dish of stuffed sheep's head is served with an intense look of shock upon its face, government-sponsored gallows are being erected by Violetist temples, and wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Larrys Island4's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Larrys Island4 is ranked 230,374th in the world and 6,946th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 24.9560256948 days.
