The Aerospace Republic of LSK is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Richard E Wilson with an iron fist, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, sprawling nuclear power plants, and frequent executions. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 6.127 billion Luskans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fawn Lake. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Luskan economy, worth a remarkable 1,185 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 193,516 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

No one believes anything until it has been strenuously tested and peer-reviewed, citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over LSK, annulments are on the rise as couples discover their ancestors were born in the same hospitals, and EpiPen sales have skyrocketed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. LSK's national animal is the Domestician Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Industrialism.

LSK is ranked 22,566^th in the world and 127^th in the Plains of Perdition for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 53.51 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
