The Empire of Lucrina is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Emperor Ancile with an iron fist, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, ubiquitous missile silos, and national health service. The compassionate, cynical population of 21.098 billion Lucrinans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Morningstar. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Lucrinan economy, worth a remarkable 2,798 trillion Denarii a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Information Technology industry. Average income is an impressive 132,658 Denarii, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Visiting dignitaries make excuses to leave functions early and head to the nearest pub, viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows, environmentalists are advocating slash-and-burn in the nation's forests, and mechanics are often exhausted by their work. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lucrina's national animal is the Coyote, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Ostara.

Lucrina is ranked 244,347th in the world and 3,509th in the Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 46.16 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
