The People's Republic of Repolaa is a huge, genial nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 695 million Repolaans 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 Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Central Repolaa City. The average income tax rate is 79.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Repolaan economy, worth 64.2 trillion Finns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is 92,410 Finns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians tend to jump ship to whichever party is currently leading in the polls, elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, horns and hypocrisy are the newest exports of Repolaa, and surveillance cameras are banned. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Repolaa's national animal is the NO NATIONAL ANIMAL, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Repolaa is ranked 62,182^nd in the world and 153^rd in The Communist Bloc for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 2,784.35 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
