The Commonwealth of Interoceanum is a small, safe nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 40 million Interoceanumians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 63.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The struggling Interoceanumian economy, worth 911 billion Intercreditums a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 22,779 Intercreditums, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is illegal to make racist remarks in public, gambling is outlawed, high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, and organ donation rates have hit a new low. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Interoceanum's national animal is the White Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Interoceanum is ranked 131,113^th in the world and 314^th in Starlight for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 551.1 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
