The Community of Lua 5 is a massive, pleasant nation, renowned for its burgeoning duck population. The hard-working population of 1.732 billion Lua 5ians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 21.6%.

The Lua 5ian economy, worth 70.9 trillion MIT-Licenses a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Trout Farming. Average income is 40,954 MIT-Licenses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lua 5's national animal is the duck.

Lua 5 is ranked 206,486^th in the world and 1^st in Union of Straight and Righteous Nations for Highest Poor Incomes, with 20,579 Standard Monetary Units.
