The Kingdom of Lunesie is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by King Hoang V of Lunesia with an iron fist, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, flagrant waste-dumping, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.084 billion lunesians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tielung. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Lunesian economy, worth a remarkable 5,651 trillion Royal Rundis a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is a breathtaking 622,132 Royal Rundis, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 5,780,451 per year while the poor average 6,192, a ratio of 933 to 1.

Assault rifles sized for 7-year-olds are a frighteningly popular export, violent criminals are doomed to be hunted by a psychotic billionaire, half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, and the nation's drinking water tends to glow green at night. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lunesie's national animal is the Mako shark, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Royal Order of Lunesia.

Lunesie is ranked 447th in the world and 8th in Calme Ybovien for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 42,896.97 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
