The Freelands of Barbariax is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Barbo McBarbari with a fair hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 20.587 billion Barbariaxians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barbariax City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Barbariaxian economy, worth a remarkable 7,598 trillion Barbs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 369,080 Barbs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,387,161 per year while the poor average 68,552, a ratio of 20.2 to 1.

Activists sabotage clean energy in the name of the environment, the army lives rent-free in foreigners' heads and houses, "Darwin's Disease" is a growing cause of death, and Barbariaxian husbands are dead good at fathering kids. Crime is well under control. Barbariax's national animal is the Barbar, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Barbariax is ranked 7,176^th in the world and 1^st in Novus Lucidum for Most Cultured, scoring 130 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
