The Authority of Lupantis is a massive, economically powerful nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 2.012 billion are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Law & Order, although Religion & Spirituality and Defence are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 91%, and even higher for the wealthy. A substantial private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.
A government program is underway to revitalize Lupantis's beaches, billions of Thorins are being blown on orbital weapons development, students who refuse to pray are expelled from school, and citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Lupantis. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lupantis's national animal is the Timber Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Thorin.
Lupantis is ranked 3501st in the region and 55,576th in the world for Nudest.
