The Republic of Better Indonesia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Nathanael Octavianus with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, public floggings, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 9.959 billion Indonesians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Jakarta. The average income tax rate is 61.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Better Indonesian economy, worth a remarkable 2,598 trillion Rupiahs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 260,874 Rupiahs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it... Better Indonesian satellites can detect it, the experimental sculpture "Overtures In Dried Komodo Dragon Dung" has been declared a national treasure, insurance companies charge extortionate premiums to cover homes near waterways, and surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Better Indonesia's national animal is the Komodo Dragon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Better Indonesia is ranked 135,065^th in the world and 1,396^th in 10000 Islands for Most Extreme, scoring 14.08 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
