The Federation of Lufskia is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, compulsory military service, and public floggings. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 746 million Lufskians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lundia. The average income tax rate is 42.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Lufskian economy, worth 58.7 trillion Lufks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 78,623 Lufks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Otherwise healthy people are being sent to internment camps because they have VODAIS, all the world's a stage for Lufskian political theatrics, life expectancy is way down but posthuman perfectionism is way up, and the new Bear Supremacy Party is faring well in the polls. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Lufskia's national animal is the Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Lufskia is ranked 34,682^nd in the world and 498^th in The North Pacific for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 6,362.73 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
