The Aerospace Republic of LSK is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Richard E Wilson with an iron fist, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 6.056 billion Luskans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fawn Lake. The average income tax rate is 93.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Luskan economy, worth a remarkable 1,168 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 192,951 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Diplomats agree to the terms and conditions of peace treaties without reading them, poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild, the navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust, and the world still seems flat to some people in space. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. LSK's national animal is the Domestician Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Industrialism.

LSK is ranked 309,221st in the world and 1,565th in the Plains of Perdition for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -8.53 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
