The Lucky Gold Holy Christmas of Inclement Space is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Hetman Vasyl Fournier with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.238 billion Inclement Spacers 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, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Belfast. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Inclement Space economy, worth 396 trillion liquid platinums 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 177,137 liquid platinums, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild, Inclement Space is increasingly belligerent on the international stage, trains and passengers alike are often late, and the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The New Belfast Times is sold out. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Inclement Space's national animal is the homo veneri, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Islam.

Inclement Space is ranked 3,332^nd in the world and 172^nd in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 137.79 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
