The Medieval Dominion of Luanmi is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Oliver Civanov with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 23.071 billion Luanmians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alphensur. The average income tax rate is 80.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Luanmian economy, worth a remarkable 4,346 trillion Siltegans a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 188,400 Siltegans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People can often be seen driving to work in war-surplus tanks, war is more of a science than an art, there's a lot of babies crying for milk in the middle of the day, and the nation has cemented its own architectural style. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Luanmi's national animal is the Hartebeest, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Taoism.

Luanmi is ranked 16,159th in the world and 39th in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 80.8 Effective Tax Rate.
