The Community of Equability is a massive, genial nation, ruled by John Plaseholder with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, hatred of cheese, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.627 billion Equabilityians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 96.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Equabilityian economy, worth 263 trillion Stamps a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 162,078 Stamps, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Equabilityians incessantly needle their doctors for relief, ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward, chickens roam the streets freely, and 'Totally Not Partisan News' is a line item on the government budget. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Equability's national animal is the Meerkat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Atheism.

Equability is ranked 3,741st in the world and 84th in The Communist Bloc for Most Developed, scoring 96.39 on the Human Development Index.
