The Democratic Republic of Lucki is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 1.348 billion Luckians 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 enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 66.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Luckian economy, worth 24.5 trillion pesos 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 a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Pizza Delivery, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. 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 18,198 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and Luckian watches list strained wrists as a common side effect. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lucki's national animal is the bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lucki is ranked 264,901^st in the world and 301^st in Commonwealth of Liberty for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -8.84 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
