Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Despotic Autocratic Empire of Luthiland is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by His Majesty Paul I with an even hand, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 2.443 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Commerce. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mount Lascivious. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining industries.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, the populace lives in fear of painful execution for minor offences, organ donation is compulsory, and cremation is compulsory for the deceased. Crime is crippling. Luthiland's national animal is the Albino Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Catholicism, and its currency is the Pauller.

Luthiland is ranked 15th in Europeia and 1,759th in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring 31 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
