The Commonwealth of Hindia Belanda is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 7.882 billion Indesvolkers 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, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jakarta. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 59.0%.

The strong Hindia Belandan economy, worth 334 trillion Rupiahs a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 42,488 Rupiahs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 120,153 per year while the poor average 12,018, a ratio of 10.0 to 1.

Wealthy students ride to school past mendicant dropouts, the government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, coalition governments are essential to passing new laws, and electrocution deaths among computer technicians are at an all-time high. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hindia Belanda's national animal is the Lion of Nassau, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hindia Belanda is ranked 28,074^th in the world and 18^th in Astyria for Smartest Citizens, with 48.92 Quips Per Hour.
