The Kingdom of Lumiarae is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Crowned Sun King Alexandre III with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 6.219 billion Lumiarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pyrus. The average income tax rate is 70.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Lumiaraean economy, worth 626 trillion solars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 100,789 solars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ambitious "businessmen" use their children to sell and advertise their products, weather forecasts are accurate but nobody has the bandwidth to view them, voting is voluntary, and The Pipe Bomb Makers' Pop-Up Book can be found in preschool libraries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lumiarae's national animal is the peacock, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Elythisme.

Lumiarae is ranked 302,441^st in the world and 791^st in Europe for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring -12.7 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
