The Most Serene Republic of Lupusterra is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 444 million Lupusterrans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moon City. The average income tax rate is 25.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Lupusterran economy, worth 48.9 trillion Wolframs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,172 Wolframs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

The disabled are forced to undergo an MRI scan every time they pick up their benefit payments, a shocking number of estate planners are beneficiaries of their clients' wills, politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech, and truancy is as easy as clicking a camera icon. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Lupusterra's national animal is the Nivalwarg, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lupusterra is ranked 21,437^th in the world and 611^th in the South Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 112.61 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
