The Mighty Foundation of Concrete Slab is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Alistair Stonesworth with a fair hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 18.567 billion Concrete Slabians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stone City. The average income tax rate is 97.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Concrete Slabian economy, worth a remarkable 5,200 trillion Stones a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 280,111 Stones, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Homeowners on prime real estate have been seen dodging giant bulldozers with cartoon characters painted on them, Alistair Stonesworth reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes, airport users are more worried about radiation than terrorism, and welfare recipients are milking the government for all they've got. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Concrete Slab's national animal is the Red Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Concrete Slab is ranked 2,126^th in the world and 49^th in the South Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 97.93 on the Human Development Index.
