The Utopian Commonwealth of Discoveria is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Nathan Bohr with a fair hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, national health service, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 41.533 billion Discoverians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Las Veritas. The average income tax rate is 86.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Discoverian economy, worth a remarkable 4,944 trillion discs a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 119,054 discs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cotton candy made from genuine cotton cellulose doesn't quite satisfy, Super Barry Brothers is the most popular video game in the nation, art criticism in Discoveria is scathingly destructive, and high-tech infantry rifles automatically reload when the soldier shoots outside the screen of their helmet HUD. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Discoveria's national animal is the lanternfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Discoveria is ranked 2,881st in the world and 15th in Gay for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 10,604.76 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
