The Republic of Lubalai is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Scoosie with a fair hand, and renowned for its strictly enforced bedtime, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 28.968 billion Lubals love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pink. The average income tax rate is 78.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Lubalaian economy, worth a remarkable 2,180 trillion rocks a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 75,259 rocks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The weather report is the prisoners' favourite programme, unpackaged foodstuffs rot on store shelves, there's a bright dawn ahead for Lubalai, and the nation sends criminals home to think about what they did. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lubalai's national animal is the collie dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lubalai is ranked 20,204th in the world and 1,308th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 89.54 law-abiding acts per hour.
