The Republic of Information Nation is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by The President with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, complete lack of prisons, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, humorless population of 14.952 billion Informians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Verita Liberta. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Information Nationian economy, worth a remarkable 2,241 trillion Moneypackets a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Retail. Average income is an impressive 149,904 Moneypackets, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 667,090 per year while the poor average 20,965, a ratio of 31.8 to 1.

Diplomats agree to the terms and conditions of peace treaties without reading them, elderly tribespeople die in bed surrounded by loved ones and linguists, the mood of raunchy movies is often ruined by the sound of babies crying, and sweat stains are proof of political acumen. Crime is totally unknown. Information Nation's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Information Nation is ranked 206,246^th in the world and 35^th in Liberal Democratic Union for Largest Black Market, with 441 billion Standard Monetary Units.
