Lutang (Santimo: Republika ng Lutang; IPA: /ˈlutaŋ/; [ˈluː.t̪ɐŋ]), officially the Republic of Lutang is a country in North Archanta. It is surrounded by Kapasigan to the west, Majesia to the south, and AR904 to the east. The capital is Bagong Bandila. Lutang is densely populated, and dominated by forests; with the few pockets of flat land being heavily urbanized.

Bagong Bandila itself is part of the Greater Bandila Area, which includes Araminta, Nabong, Pauwakin, and Riman. The GBA is home to 17 million people (23 million if the spillover into West Sundin is included), making it Lutang's most populated province. To the east of the GBA is West Sundin, into which a large part of the GBA conurbation has spilled over. West Sundin's capital is Solidago, a major center of the Lutang oil, gas, and petroleum industry and a hub for Lutang's music scene. West of the GBA is Araminta, Lutang's richest city by per-capita GDP. To the far east of the country is Huntsman Island, whose capital is Matilda and whose largest city is Rochelle. Northwest Huntsman Island is also heavily urbanized, with approximately 10 million people living there out of the island's 13 million population.
