The Small Nation of Lumiose is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Ammalia Marbleflower with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 3.866 billion Lumiors 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Meldryn. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 74.6%.

The powerhouse Lumic economy, worth 329 trillion silvers a year, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. Average income is 85,139 silvers, with the richest citizens earning 8.1 times as much as the poorest.

The most popular WhoTube videos are ones featuring parodies of iconic songs, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, beatboxing has replaced the 'Wilhelm scream' as the nation's most popular sound effect, and lending firms are subject to strict government regulations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lumiose's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lumiose is ranked 30,303^rd in the world and 144^th in Forest for Smartest Citizens, with 52.69 quips per hour.
