The Free Land of Interpolations is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, infamous sell-swords, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 292 million Interpolationsians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Defense, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Environment and Industry receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 8.0%.

The strong Interpolationsian economy, worth 14.7 trillion Approximations a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 50,277 Approximations, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Workers have their fruitcake and eat it too, citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, punitive tariffs protect local industry, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Interpolations's national animal is the Cheshire Cat, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Interpolations is ranked 165,612^th in the world and 57^th in Lands End for Highest Average Incomes, with 50,277.06 Standard Monetary Units.
