The Commonwealth of Port Starboard is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Venustiano Carranza with a fair hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, smutty television, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 26.914 billion Port Starboardians 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 large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cape Suzette. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Port Starboardian economy, worth a remarkable 8,461 trillion Shaboozies a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 314,381 Shaboozies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Repurposed warships fire swag at company promotional events, doctors spend more time writing sick notes than caring for the sick, the nation's only university is the School of Hard Knocks, and the overhead luggage compartment is often full. Crime is totally unknown. Port Starboard's national animal is the Turtleduck, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Port Starboard is ranked 2,534^th in the world and 2^nd in The Furry Federation for Highest Average Incomes, with 314,381.87 Standard Monetary Units.
