The Empire of LuckRich is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 581 million LuckRichians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wealthland City. The average income tax rate is 25.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming LuckRichian economy, worth 65.2 trillion Wealth Worths a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 112,262 Wealth Worths, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Broken suspension systems are giving auto repair shops plenty of business, randomly bombing neighboring countries has become the new national sport, the "swords to plowshares" policy has created a generation of farmers that can kill a yak from 200 yards away, and the fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. LuckRich's national animal is the Cats, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

LuckRich is ranked 84,505^th in the world and 484^th in Europe for Highest Wealthy Incomes, with 168,017 Standard Monetary Units.
