The Mighty Foundation of Concrete Slab is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Alistair Stonesworth with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and aversion to nipples. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 13.478 billion Concrete Slabians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stone City. The average income tax rate is 97.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Concrete Slabian economy, worth a remarkable 3,742 trillion Stones a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 277,647 Stones, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Every day has been a surprise since weather reporters turned to consulting ancient totems for their seven-day forecasts, droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police, military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, and a flying elephant and Alistair Stonesworth share the same nickname. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Concrete Slab's national animal is the Red Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Concrete Slab is ranked 291,633rd in the world and 5,524th in the South Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -839.08 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
