The Tsardom of Lura is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Tsar Sorejo III with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic population of 15.133 billion Lurans 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.
The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lunaja-Solare. The average income tax rate is 88.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Luran economy, worth a remarkable 2,166 trillion gales a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 143,142 gales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Some achieve retirement and some have retirement thrust upon them, calls to prayer are the newest dog whistles, families make most of their annual income from government benefits, and they unpaved paradise and tore up a parking lot (ooh, bop bop bop). Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lura's national animal is the tuatara, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Lura is ranked 9,042nd in the world and 56th in Forest for Most Secular, with 95.62 Atheism Rate.
