The Commonwealth and nations of Pluerben Nations is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Queen Raven with an iron fist, and renowned for its enslaved workforce, ban on automobiles, and lack of airports. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 10.086 billion Pluerbens are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valeacor. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Pluerben economy, worth a remarkable 1,260 trillion Dornas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,931 Dornas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 364,443 per year while the poor average 33,839, a ratio of 10.8 to 1.

The government invades its allies more than its enemies, the immigration office has an express line for people bringing cash in briefcases, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, and political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from Queen Raven's throne. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pluerben Nations's national animal is the Griffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Pluerben Nations is ranked 76,604th in the world and 1st in Terranihill for Lowest Crime Rates, with 69.05 law-abiding acts per hour.
