The Relaxed Vacation Island of Isle of Tranquility is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Person of the Day with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 10.788 billion Islanders are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blisstown. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.8%.

The thriving Tranquil economy, worth 817 trillion blisses a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 75,763 blisses, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 242,226 per year while the poor average 17,998, a ratio of 13.5 to 1.

Invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days, record numbers of students are leaving school to enter the workforce, the Great Tranquil Melting Pot boils out ethnic heritage, and people are more interested in gossip about the private lives of politicians than their policies. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Isle of Tranquility's national animal is the narwhal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is seeking enlightenment.

Isle of Tranquility is ranked 36,282^nd in the world and 5^th in Freshness for Nicest Citizens, with 18.96 average smiles per day.
