The Republic of Invictus is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its restrictive gun laws. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 3.458 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although Social Welfare and the Environment are on the agenda. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Civitas. The average income tax rate is 67%, and even higher for the wealthy. 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.

The minority inevitably have their addenda vetoed, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, army rations are served on silver platters, and eight year-olds with lemonade stands have been known to be locked up on charges of embezzlement. Crime is relatively low. Invictus's national animal is the liondog, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the equita.

Invictus is ranked 352nd in 10000 Islands and 10,040th in the world for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 67 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
