The Apostolic Commonwealth of New Luciannova is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Lucian Constantine Publis Pius Aurelius with an even hand, and renowned for its public floggings, smutty television, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 8.122 billion New Luciannovans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny, corrupt government prioritizes Education, with Industry, Defense, and Administration also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Constantine. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient New Luciannovan economy, worth a remarkable 2,681 trillion New Luciannovan Denarii a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 330,180 New Luciannovan Denarii, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

If there's something strange in your neighborhood you call Brancaland, the government has enacted freedom of information, bicyclists are banned from major roads, and flu research is commonly shut down for fear of creating a superbug. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. New Luciannova's national animal is the Awesome Possum, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

New Luciannova is ranked 947^th in the world and 1^st in Cape of Good Hope for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 966.31 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
