The Kingdom of Lumeros is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Queen Juliana III with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, zero percent divorce rate, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, devout population of 3.703 billion Lumerosians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arkhipov's Oasis. The average income tax rate is 88.4%.

The powerhouse Lumerosian economy, worth 295 trillion Limos a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 79,877 Limos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Works of historical fiction contain a surprising lack of historical figures, schoolchildren seeking entertainment have been told to go fish, children as young as eight can present logical proofs for the existence of the afterlife, and any secret that gets off someone's chest is promptly replaced. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lumeros's national animal is the Panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholic.

Lumeros is ranked 87,190^th in the world and 25^th in Kantrias for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,473.11 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
