The United Kingdom of Lundenia is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 10.14 billion Lundenians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The relatively small, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 51.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lundenian economy, worth a remarkable 2,945 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 290,485 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Praying before a battle is a court-martial offence, write-in candidate 'Leader Sucks' is perennially popular, counselors have to sign pledges supporting gay rights before they can speak to any patients, and anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Lundenia's national animal is the beaver, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Lundenia is ranked 249,783^rd in the world and 4,269^th in The East Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -6.38 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
