The Kingdom of Lucaran is a massive, safe nation, notable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.229 billion Lucarnians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Volkstag. The average income tax rate is 76.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Lucaranian economy, worth 167 trillion Lucaran Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 75,351 Lucaran Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise, the armed forces have declassified their next-generation document shredder, and people who have lived their entire lives in Lucaran are shocked to discover that they are not citizens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lucaran's national animal is the Anaconda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.
Lucaran is ranked 58,467th in the world and 12th in Empires Forever United for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 4,366.01 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
