The Federal Provinces of North Plegia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by The Fell Dragon Grima with a fair hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 8.014 billion Plegians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Plego. The average income tax rate is 69.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Plegian economy, worth 883 trillion Silver Marks a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,267 Silver Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

The mining industry has taken a hit from tighter environmental regulations, major boxing matches are held in government buildings, kids are taught in schools to argue with their parents, and the banshee wail foretells skies of death. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Plegia's national animal is the Obsidian Wyvern, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

North Plegia is ranked 22,060^th in the world and 44^th in The Union of Democratic States for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 2,137.28 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
