The Community of High Schoolers is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its enslaved workforce, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate population of 3.04 billion High Schoolersians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 64.6%.

The strong High Schoolersian economy, worth 165 trillion points a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,393 points, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 156,177 per year while the poor average 15,064, a ratio of 10.4 to 1.

Police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds, evenings at university debating societies often end with everyone acknowledging both sides may well be right, the masses are surrendering their civil liberties without complaint for the sake of shopping convenience, and standing on one leg in public is a criminal offence. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. High Schoolers's national animal is the stress, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

High Schoolers is ranked 36,620^th in the world and 1,914^th in Osiris for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 51.96 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
