The Sunset Republic of Polgaria is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by the Federal Assembly with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.412 billion Polgarians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zalnoch. The average income tax rate is 96.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Polgarian economy, worth a remarkable 1,577 trillion Euros a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 138,267 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Selling your granddad's clothes requires an incredible amount of paperwork, business owners return from long vacations to find their factories have been turned into homeless shelters, children's TV shows are having a gay old time, and election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Polgaria's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Polgaria is ranked 262,702^nd in the world and 6,405^th in The North Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -7.75 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
