The Nirmocracy of Nirmolland is a huge, genial nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 615 million Nirms love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hustro. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Nirmish economy, worth 47.8 trillion Nirmles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,733 Nirmles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Jumping in puddles after rainstorms has become an indoor activity, Nirms seem to be catching more chills, the Simon is a protected species, and Nirmish police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nirmolland's national animal is the Simon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nirmolland is ranked 36,061st in the world and 87th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 810.28 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
