The Commonwealth of Enrichment is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Barrrington the Bold with an even hand, and notable for its parental licensing program. Its hard-nosed population of 14.138 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded individuals juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, the Environment, and Law & Order. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Full Cuppa City. Income tax is unheard of. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Government-run screening operations remove embryos with severe genetic disorders, the police have reaffirmed their tough stance on drugs, religious organizations are being forced to leave the country or pay income taxes like everybody else, and invading armies are given hard glares for their cheek. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Enrichment's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Currant.

Enrichment is ranked 6th in The North Pacific and 197th in the world for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 18 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
