The Commonwealth of Impelmalds is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its daily referendums, ritual sacrifices, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 15.422 billion Impelmaldsians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ricci. The average income tax rate is 84.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Impelmaldsian economy, worth a remarkable 2,000 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 129,687 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hordes of tourists are ruining the environment, it's often raining men (hallelujah) in Ricci, government expenses are beyond compare, and it's best not to ask what goes into Ricci Fried Chicken's secret blend of herbs and spices. Crime is totally unknown. Impelmalds's national animal is the Sea Urchin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Impelmalds is ranked 16,321^st in the world and 1,024^th in Balder for Highest Poor Incomes, with 101,154.59 Standard Monetary Units.
