The Democratic Republic of The Holding is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its daily referendums, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 21.862 billion Holdingians 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 enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Citadel. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Holdingian economy, worth a remarkable 3,538 trillion tokens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 161,871 tokens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Police struggle to solve crimes due to the lack of fingerprint records, burgers often list "miscellaneous meats" in their ingredients, cheese lovers have a case of the bleus, and political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions. Crime is totally unknown. The Holding's national animal is the snake, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Holding is ranked 35,539th in the world and 12th in Greater Ixnay for Most Stationary, with 1,273.2689073296 days.
