The Joyful Republic of Liberdon is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Supreme Overlord Squall Arctic with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 8.912 billion Liberdonians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rectus City. The average income tax rate is 14.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Liberdonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,509 trillion ice cubes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 169,351 ice cubes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
The last thing Liberdonian soldiers hear before charging into battle is a preacher trying to convert them, Animal Liberationists are regularly arrested, children's bedrooms are often decorated with posters of successful accountants, and teach an angler how to phish and he can make a living. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Liberdon's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Capitalism.
Liberdon is ranked 7,592nd in the world and 132nd in 10000 Islands for Most Cultured, scoring 135 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
