The United Socialist States of Luniandez is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Mathemayi with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 10.599 billion Lunians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Olinda. The average income tax rate is 96.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Lunian economy, worth a remarkable 1,597 trillion Lunis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 150,753 Lunis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Much of Luniandez's computer network is controlled by a rampant artificial intelligence, crocodile roadkill is smeared across the asphalt of the new Formula One track, snap elections are called whenever there's a chance to increase Mathemayi's majority, and Lunian watches are often the only thing to survive a disaster intact. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Luniandez's national animal is the Lunian monkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Luniandez is ranked 46,263^rd in the world and 574^th in The North Pacific for Nudest, with 212.25 cheeks per square mile.
