The Protectorate of Noordpunt is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 22.774 billion Noordpuntians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 69.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Noordpuntian economy, worth 590 trillion guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 25,939 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens select which government department gets their income tax guilders each year, euthanasia is legal, voting is voluntary, and the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Noordpunt's national animal is the ox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Noordpunt is ranked 44,743rd in the world and 3rd in the SPR of Herrebrugh for Most Stationary, with 987.1014863102 days.
