The Banana Republic of Freeport is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ban on automobiles, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 3.137 billion Christians 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, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 12.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Christian economy, worth 295 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 94,192 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Shopkeepers use microscopes to verify the authenticity of banknotes, arbitration is mightier than the sword, apprentice builders get teased for wearing hard hats, and ratings for sitcom reruns are often much higher than election debates. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Freeport's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christian ✝️.

Freeport is ranked 44,282nd in the world and 7th in Ancient Lands for Highest Poor Incomes, with 57,692.23 Standard Monetary Units.
