The Kingdom of Luconovos is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, avowedly heterosexual populace, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 495 million Luconovosians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Luconovos City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 34.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Luconovosian economy, worth 50.5 trillion Luconovosian dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 102,052 Luconovosian dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.2 times as much as the poorest.

Excited shovel-bearing geeks wander the countryside, a shocking number of estate planners are beneficiaries of their clients' wills, Leader's campaign events reach their climax when the celebrity endorsers reveal themselves, and the sound of office water cooler chatter has been replaced by the whirring of computer cooling fans. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Luconovos's national animal is the Duck, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Luconovos is ranked 78,199^th in the world and 2,151^st in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 68 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
