The Community of Steelent is a colossal, genial nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.166 billion Steelentians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 59.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Steelentian economy, worth 323 trillion deniers a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,529 deniers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police, the government frequently panders to parents with boutique tax credits, election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes, and crowds of flag-burning protesters tend to accidentally become crowds of burning protesters. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Steelent's national animal is the kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Steelent is ranked 21,036^th in the world and 1,175^th in Lazarus for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,142.46 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
