The Latamer of Latamer is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Latamer with an iron fist, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, enslaved workforce, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.777 billion Latamers are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Spirituality and Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Latamer. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Latamer economy, worth a remarkable 2,919 trillion Latamers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 298,632 Latamers, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,951,029 per year while the poor average 18,026, a ratio of 108 to 1.

A signed affidavit from a prominent anti-corruption advocate declares that she is in fact a crook after all, government debts are financed through alchemy, citizens can freely debate whether Latamer is a great leader or the greatest leader, and patients often wonder which is more annoying: their excruciating pain or their doctor incessantly praying over it. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Latamer's national animal is the Latamer, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Latamer.

Latamer is ranked 228th in the world and 1st in Europe for Fattest Citizens, with 94.37 Obesity Rate.
