The Nomadic Peoples of Ludewa is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by bob with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, humorless population of 37.228 billion Ludewans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of bob. The average income tax rate is 94.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Ludewan economy, worth an astonishing 17,933 trillion thoughts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 481,717 thoughts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Gangs of political bullies tell minority voices to "shut up because we say so", it is not politically correct to suspect that a serially convicted burglar might steal again, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, and many friends and relatives of bob have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Ludewa's national animal is the animalcule, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Ludewa is ranked 6,605th in the world and 98th in The East Pacific for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 10,139.24 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
