The United Tribes of Sonnveld is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Michaela Brahmagni with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, otherworldly petting zoo, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 37.405 billion Sonnveldak enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shining Circle. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Sonnveldische economy, worth a remarkable 7,739 trillion sonns a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 206,900 sonns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Preschools put children down for naps with milk, cookies, and a gruesome story of vengeance, the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression, a ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect, and Sonnveld has been recently classified as an international menace after 'liberating' several nearby territories. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sonnveld's national animal is the Golden Alphyn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sonnveld is ranked 263,786^th in the world and 5^th in The Forest for Most Primitive, scoring -204.83 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
