The Democratic States of Integritat is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 2.361 billion are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, moralistic, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Commerce, and Law & Order. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of City of Gregorio del Pilar. The average income tax rate is 45%, but much higher for the wealthy. A small private sector is led by the Trout Farming industry, followed by Soda Sales and Automobile Manufacturing.

Glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, the government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system, and school uniforms are compulsory. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Integritat's national animal is the manx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the zoloto.

Integritat is ranked 28th in Philippines and 103,064th in the world for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -2 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
