The Frostbound Nation of Lupusterra is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Launin Kerkeci and Audra Vucica with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, pith helmet sales, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 5.689 billion Lupusterrans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moon City. The average income tax rate is 91.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lupusterran economy, worth a remarkable 1,324 trillion Wolframs a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 232,775 Wolframs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Taxpayer money is hard at work exorcizing laundry, the arms industry is strictly regulated, asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes, and theft is considered to be okay if the crime happened a long time ago. Crime is totally unknown. Lupusterra's national animal is the Nivalwarg, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Luminara Energy.

Lupusterra is ranked 242,597th in the world and 2,955th in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -1.26 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
