The Commonwealth of Lumeau is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by the Executive-General with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 8.911 billion Lumeauians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Home. The average income tax rate is 64.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Lumeauian economy, worth a remarkable 1,048 trillion luxes a year, is led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 117,622 luxes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Supervisors in Lumeau commonly tie bells on their necks to alert employees of their presence, ten-year-olds regularly found their own political parties, victims of crime are viewed as less trustworthy than politicians, and engineers ask liberal arts majors "Do you want fries with that?". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lumeau's national animal is the grey parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Lumeau is ranked 272,471st in the world and 9,300th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 9.60722996248 days.
