The People's Republic of Lunistilan is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Federal Council of Lunistilan with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.181 billion Lunistilanians 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, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novaya Aurora. The average income tax rate is 86.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Lunistilanian economy, worth 321 trillion marks 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 major contributions from Tourism and Retail. Average income is an impressive 101,214 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Therapists dispense hugs for heroin dealers and cuddles for crackheads, scientists are terrified of fabulous new breakthroughs, diplomats are always trying to convince other nations to adopt l33t speak, and the government is continually probing the galaxy in search of alien life. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lunistilan's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Lunistilan is ranked 28,458th in the world and 65th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Developed, scoring 83.56 on the Human Development Index.
