The Federation of Libearte is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Charles de Mont-Blanc with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism, digital currency, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 3.054 billion Libeartians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Micqaus-Chaivaux. The average income tax rate is 45.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Libeartean economy, worth 639 trillion Solliars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Retail, Information Technology, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 209,400 Solliars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Octogenarian swimsuit models insist that they've still got it, asylum seekers have voted Libearte as best layover destination, the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression, and the most penniless demographics have by far the highest number of researchers per capita. Crime is totally unknown. Libearte's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Libearte is ranked 25,475^th in the world and 13^th in Union of Allied States for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 4,796.93 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
