The Democratic Republic of Slit is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons and absence of drug laws. The democratic population of 15.507 billion Slitians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 43.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Slitian economy, worth 574 trillion slits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 37,018 slits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens need a magnifying glass and color chart to distinguish between nearly identical brand labels, even the most lowly council pen-pusher has the same political power as a senior minister, the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, and would-be emigrants are told "abandon all hope all ye who would exit here". Crime is well under control. Slit's national animal is the shark, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Slit is ranked 132,549th in the world and 87th in Japan for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
