The Silver Republic of Liberdon is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Supreme Overlord Squall Arctic with a fair hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, daily referendums, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.924 billion Liberdonians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rectus City. The average income tax rate is 57.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Liberdonian economy, worth 465 trillion ice cubes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 159,213 ice cubes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Law schools are hurrying to teach the "prank defense" to their students, Big Agriculture has the government by the nuts, the government has spent days debating the merits of a petition calling for a ban on sporks, and judicial robes are the country's hottest fashion trend. Crime is totally unknown. Liberdon's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is capitalism.

Liberdon is ranked 12,381^st in the world and 118^th in 10000 Islands for Most Patriotic, with 37.9 Flags saluted per person per day.
