The most prominent members of this community are Hank Hill's neighbors, the Souphinousinphone family, and the wealthy Wasanasong family (whom the Souphinousinphones simultaneously hate and envy).

Laos, officially known as '''Lao People's Democratic Republic''' ('''Lao Language:''' ''ສາທາລະນະລັດ ປະຊາທິປະໄຕ ປະຊາຊົນລາວ Sathalanalat Paxathipatai Paxaxon''), is the only landlocked country in Southeast Asia.[[note]]This appears to be its most memorable trait, judging by {{Trivia}} quizzes.[[/note]] However, it does have access to the sea since it has the Mekong River which flows through the South China Sea. The country is also fairly hilly and still largely forested, unlike its neighbors. The capital is Vientiane, located on the banks of Mekong and bordering UsefulNotes/{{Thailand}}. It is a Marxist-Leninist state, but like UsefulNotes/{{China}} and UsefulNotes/{{Vietnam}}, had introduced a market economy, albeit less successful than both of them. It has been a member of ASEAN, Southeast Asia's intergovernmental organization, since 1997. Alongside China, Vietnam, UsefulNotes/{{Cuba}}, and UsefulNotes/NorthKorea, it is one of the only remaining nations to be technically classifiable as communist.
