The Community of Stuant is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Friedel with a fair hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.284 billion Stuantians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bonobo Vale. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Stuantian economy, worth 553 trillion rupees a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 168,565 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Reflection is vital for badly behaved politicians, the numbers on the latest spending report are reaching stellar levels, snap elections are called over every minor impasse, and vegetables are crisper thanks to CRISPR. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stuant's national animal is the bonobo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Stuant is ranked 311,542^nd in the world and 1,127^th in Concord for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -10.32 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
