The Dominion of Lupaskala is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 4.804 billion Lupaskalans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 32.0%.
The strong Lupaskalan economy, worth 351 trillion Wolfic Shervonets a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,211 Wolfic Shervonets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.
Clergy who start talking about politics are forced to take a holy vow of silence, the government baselessly accuses foreign dignitaries of being assassins, the new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?", and heavily-laden pregnant women are told they can manage. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lupaskala's national animal is the Banshee, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Lupaskala is ranked 95,817th in the world and 648th in Artificial Solar System for Lowest Crime Rates, with 66.39 law-abiding acts per hour.
