The Anime Girl Amala of Luminethra is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Ama with an even hand, and notable for its enslaved workforce, free-roaming dinosaurs, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.005 billion Luminethrans 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 relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amala. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 26.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Luminethran economy, worth 124 trillion Lumins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 124,343 Lumins, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 661,255 per year while the poor average 12,331, a ratio of 53.6 to 1.

The nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, a faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park, and the nation's faithful often say there is a higher power watching over them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Luminethra's national animal is the Moon Jellyfish, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Luminethra is ranked 26,639th in the world and 88th in Starlight for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 267.37 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
