The Freeland of Barbariax is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Barbo McBarbari with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 17.018 billion Barbariaxians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barbariax City. The average income tax rate is 9.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Barbariaxian economy, worth a remarkable 6,268 trillion Barbs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 368,368 Barbs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The minority inevitably have their addenda vetoed, protestors are soaking piles of Barbs in blood to make a point about government incomes, wounded veterans can only get prosthetics if they agree to become walking billboards for the arms industry, and in a desperate bid for cheap airfare Barbariaxians can be seen jogging in a rubber suit just before flying. Crime is totally unknown. Barbariax's national animal is the Barbar, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Barbariax is ranked 1,526th in the world and 1st in Novus Lucidum for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 14,701.94 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
