“I'm not overtired, I'm just crazy.”

The Principality of -Timelessness is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its hatred of cheese. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 537 million enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although the Environment and Public Transport are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 68%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

The government is a clear-cut case of tyranny by majority, the people elect the Supreme Court justices directly, there has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, and citizens select which government department gets their income tax eucalyptuss each year. Crime is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -Timelessness's national animal is the sea turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the eucalyptus.

-Timelessness is ranked 65th in the region and 49,098th in the world for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector.
