The Theocratic Republic of Luverica is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Primarch Lucarlam with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 5.044 billion Luvericans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Augustine. The average income tax rate is 61.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Luverican economy, worth 528 trillion Sockeys a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 104,763 Sockeys, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

Bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of, skateparks can be found in every city, the government subsidizes those who produce the worst results, and restaurants cater to pregnancy cravings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Luverica's national animal is the Pheasant, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Latin Rite Catholicism.

Luverica is ranked 308,171st in the world and 43rd in Angelic League for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -17.58 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
