The Republic of Sharebergs is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 3.468 billion Sharebergsians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Public Transport are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.2%.

The thriving Sharebergsian economy, worth 249 trillion kronor a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 71,820 kronor, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 254,221 per year while the poor average 14,649, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Sharebergs's national animal is the parrot, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Sharebergs is ranked 237,243^rd in the world and 10,241^st in Osiris for Highest Poor Incomes, with 14,649.92 Standard Monetary Units.
