The Republic of Lugheopuosun is a colossal, cultured nation, notable for its zero percent divorce rate, public floggings, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.644 billion Lugheopuosunians 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."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 83.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lugheopuosunian economy, worth 833 trillion Yen a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 125,429 Yen, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Possession of tomato seeds with intent to garden is a criminal offence, the government supplies ragtag bands of resistance fighters in exchange for vague promises of future payment, garden stores are not allowed to sell water butts, and vacationing hippies and old ladies are regularly arrested for bringing back contraband basketry. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lugheopuosun's national animal is the Scorpion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Lugheopuosun is ranked 34,715^th in the world and 86^th in Two for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 833.38 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
