The Free Land of Luxbris is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its daily referendums and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.159 billion Luxbrisians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 24.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Luxbrisian economy, worth 139 trillion Trades a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Soda Sales, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 44,225 Trades, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Occam's razor has sliced to pieces any childhood belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, the government has adopted a "Lightning Never Strikes Twice" approach to dealing with natural disasters, citizens can only enjoy the splendor of the natural world in designated 'Majesty Appreciation' zones, and artificial intelligences seeking exciting work are overcome with ennui. Crime is totally unknown. Luxbris's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Luxbris is ranked 202,069th in the world and 2nd in Bornshire for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -2.04 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
