The Medieval Dominion of Luanmi is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Oliver Civanov with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, state-planned economy, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 23.011 billion Luanmians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alphensur. The average income tax rate is 80.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Luanmian economy, worth a remarkable 4,304 trillion Siltegans a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 187,066 Siltegans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foundling babies rarely make it off the doorsteps they are abandoned on, employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams, married couples must call each other "darling" or risk a fine, and fashion models are guaranteed to be 100% genuinely as anorexic as they appear on magazine covers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Luanmi's national animal is the Hartebeest, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Taoism.

Luanmi is ranked 146,231st in the world and 114th in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 8,468.23 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
