The Empire of Terre Lunae is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and public floggings. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 784 million Lunaeans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Urbs Lunae. The average income tax rate is 44.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Lunaean economy, worth 33.1 trillion lunarums a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,252 lunarums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The strong are acquitted and the weak are trampled in trial by a Hare, increasing numbers of children in Terre Lunae have different eye and hair color to their supposed fathers, blood donations have been banned because of the risk of eternal unrest, and the new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Terre Lunae's national animal is the Hare, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Terre Lunae is ranked 92,172^nd in the world and 1,135^th in the South Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 33,073.15 Standard Monetary Units.
