The Small Nation of Lumiose is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Ammalia Marbleflower with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.307 billion Lumiors are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Meldrin. The average income tax rate is 95.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Lumior economy, worth a remarkable 1,036 trillion silvers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 141,802 silvers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references, the government has ordered a moratorium on referenda, the most popular WhoTube videos are ones featuring parodies of iconic songs, and the Forestry Department has decided you really can't fight fire with fire. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lumiose's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lumiose is ranked 303,996^th in the world and 237^th in Forest for Fattest Citizens, with 3.64 Obesity Rate.
