The Federal People's Republic of Ludora is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by the Ludora Party of Labour with a fair hand, and remarkable for its restrictive gun laws. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 17.148 billion love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, the Environment, and Social Welfare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Coralsburg. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

CEOs can't hear the term 'Fire Sale' without bursting into tears, teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers, politicians are to be found scavenging bins at night to supplement their income, and mothers are routinely abandoning their children in the name of women's rights. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ludora's national animal is the Angry Gonzo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the State Credit.

Ludora is ranked 166th in USSR and 101,544th in the world for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -16 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
