The Republic of Luchetsk is a tiny, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-working, devout population of 7 million Luchetskis enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 12.4%.

The strong Luchetskian economy, worth 387 billion Artarite Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 55,406 Artarite Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

College students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, education and welfare spending are on the rise, most of the nation's wealthy aristocrats are dentists, and Luchetsk's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region. Crime is relatively low. Luchetsk's national animal is the Inland Sky Penguin.

Luchetsk is ranked 144,163^rd in the world and 768^th in Europeia for Highest Average Incomes, with 55,406.84 Standard Monetary Units.
