The Federated Bailiwicks of Verdant Haven is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Iskandar Viridi with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, national health service, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.937 billion Havenians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The frighteningly efficient Verdant Havenian economy, worth 691 trillion Verdethalers a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing.

Nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, children must be board certified to append "Jr" to their name, the best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop, and crowds of flag-burning protesters tend to accidentally become crowds of burning protesters.
