The Colony of Lux Conos is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its state-planned economy, keen interest in outer space, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 316 million Conosians 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, Welfare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brithyll. The average income tax rate is 63.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Lux Conosian economy, worth 22.1 trillion Trout a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 69,876 Trout, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Artists from across the nation compete to renovate the restrooms of old government buildings, the once prosperous capital is in utter decline, the nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, and graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lux Conos's national animal is the Trout, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Lux Conos is ranked 59,119^th in the world and 2,811^th in The North Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 69,876.49 Standard Monetary Units.
