The Republic of Luminesa is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by President Neko Hishi with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, zero percent divorce rate, and triple-decker prams. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 25.528 billion Luminesans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Environment, and Spirituality also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fides. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Luminesan economy, worth a remarkable 3,291 trillion Peeps a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 128,942 Peeps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Third party candidates are now gaining some representation in Parliament, military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, citizens applying for their first jobs face fierce competition from the homeless, and citizens have a tough time telling the difference between jeans and genes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Luminesa's national animal is the Chibi Cat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Luminesa is ranked 318,133^rd in the world and 6^th in Winterfell for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -10.12 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
