The Claws of Laura Kinney is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by X-23 with a fair hand, and remarkable for its burgeoning wolverine population. The democratic, devout population of 3.364 billion Wolverines are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Logana. The average income tax rate is 46.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Wolverine economy, worth 78.4 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 23,315 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

X-23 has just been declared ruler of Laura Kinney in an international press conference, Laura Kinney has designated Logana as its capital city, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, and Wolverine is one of the most popular forenames in Laura Kinney. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Laura Kinney's national animal is the wolverine, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is wolverinism.

Laura Kinney is ranked 130,682^nd in the world and 52^nd in Canada for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,227.61 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
