The Capital City of Luanda is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Bailiff with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ritual sacrifices, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 24.716 billion Luandans 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Luanda. The average income tax rate is 66.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Luandan economy, worth a remarkable 3,149 trillion Kwanzas a year, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 127,447 Kwanzas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Odysseying merchant sailors swear that they've heard sirens in the western seas, increasing numbers of children in Luanda have different eye and hair color to their supposed fathers, kids looking for shark teeth have become ancient history, and members of ethnic minorities are more often called "boy" or "girl" than by their actual names. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Luanda's national animal is the Agapornis, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Luanda is ranked 278,892^nd in the world and 10,229^th in Balder for Nicest Citizens, with 0.39 average smiles per day.
