The Enlightened Monarchy of Snaelande is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Princess Ása Verhysdottir with a fair hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 9.779 billion Snaelandeans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Snaefjall. The average income tax rate is 20.9%.

The Snaelandean economy, worth 798 trillion Kronors a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 81,683 Kronors, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Corporate lawyers are joyfully combing through the new tax code for any new loopholes for their clients, fashion models are guaranteed to be 100% genuinely as anorexic as they appear on magazine covers, any citizen who cries is immediately assigned a psychiatrist, and 'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Snaelande's radio stations. Crime is totally unknown. Snaelande's national animal is the Snow Fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Snaelande is ranked 35,167^th in the world and 1,798^th in Balder for Safest, scoring 107.13 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
