The Most Serene Republic of Lupusterra is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 425 million Lupusterrans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moon City. The average income tax rate is 26.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Lupusterran economy, worth 45.8 trillion Wolframs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,774 Wolframs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors, theft is considered to be okay if the crime happened a long time ago, kindergarten teachers with ankle-bracelets are closely supervised by their parole officers, and all mothers are allowed six months fully-paid maternity leave. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Lupusterra's national animal is the Nivalwarg, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lupusterra is ranked 70,788^th in the world and 1,283^rd in the South Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,396.92 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
