The Republic of Impeck is a mammoth, safe nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, suspicion of poets, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.137 billion Impeckans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ligul. The average income tax rate is 70.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Impeckian economy, worth 577 trillion rubles a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 94,064 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hospitals fear government fines more than terrorist ransoms, recognizing the Impeckian flag qualifies you for citizenship, endangered bison are herded across the border to prevent them from trampling on native prairie grass, and populations of two-headed bisons have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites. Crime is totally unknown. Impeck's national animal is the bison, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Impeck is ranked 272,824^th in the world and 1,544^th in the Plains of Perdition for Most Primitive, scoring -185.19 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
