The Free Land of Netherrelm is a tiny, genial nation, remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism. The hard-working, devout population of 7 million Freedoms enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Environment, and Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.3%.

The strong Netherrelmian economy, worth 463 billion Rodricks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 66,167 Rodricks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 212,306 per year while the poor average 15,636, a ratio of 13.6 to 1.

The hardest thing for a mining operation to dig through is government red tape, couples kissing on the street are detained for 'unlawful exchange of genetic material', foreign workers are flooding in as Rodricks flood out, and Eau de Trashcan has become a wildly popular perfume. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Netherrelm's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Netherrelm is ranked 111,223^rd in the world and 12^th in The United Binturong Islands for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 760.98 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
