The Republic of Lutchman is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning turtle population. The hard-working, democratic population of 3.06 billion Lutchmanians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.0%.

The strong Lutchmanian economy, worth 149 trillion kronor a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 48,989 kronor, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate. Lutchman's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Lutchman is ranked 182,021^st in the world and 7,026^th in Balder for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
