The Ascetic Virtues of Luna Amore is a behemoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Billy Pilgrim with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 50.318 billion Amorians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The medium-sized, liberal, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Education, although Welfare, Industry, and Environment are also considered important, while Defense and Law & Order are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mare Loon. The income tax rate is 100.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Amorian economy, worth an astonishing 17,508 trillion pop-tops a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 347,954 pop-tops, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,501,815 per year while the poor average 51,356, a ratio of 29.2 to 1.

Chemical burn victims tan their scars summering at luxury beach resorts with huge cash settlements, world leaders often feel uncomfortable when Billy Pilgrim tries to recruit them into selling cosmetics, one man's trash is another company's tax break, and diaper-wrapped shawarma is a fan-favorite. Crime is totally unknown. Luna Amore's national animal is the Infamous Marxist Loon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Tao te Loon.

Luna Amore is ranked 10,078^th in the world and 2^nd in Free Thought for Most Developed, scoring 90.5 on the Human Development Index.
