The Federal Republic of Lucora is a massive, genial nation, notable for its prohibition of alcohol, triple-decker prams, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 4.78 billion Lucorans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Leinesbourg. The average income tax rate is 67.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Lucoran economy, worth 350 trillion Ferlannes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,376 Ferlannes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political clichés like "band-aid solutions" and "adrenaline shots to the economy" are headed for the dumpster, the nation's laws on image rights are amongst the strictest in the world, athletic teenagers are among the wealthiest members of society, and many parents are becoming frustrated with their children's choices in spouses. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lucora's national animal is the Sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lucora is ranked 275,900^th in the world and 218^th in Kantrias for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -10.2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
