The Hibernating Wintergreens of Snow Forest is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Alabaster Boreas with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.181 billion Forest-dwellers 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 prioritizes Education, with Industry, Administration, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Boreal City. The average income tax rate is 79.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Boreal economy, worth a remarkable 1,351 trillion kroner a year, is quite 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 impressive 132,790 kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

One tree's worth of paperwork accompanies each imported log of timber, wealthy pranksters dump refuse on unsuspecting citizens from up high, politicians tend to speak more loudly and slowly these days, and planespotters are emigrating in droves. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Snow Forest's national animal is the Reindeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Conservation of Forests and Wildlife.

Snow Forest is ranked 46,438^th in the world and 7^th in Fjord for Most Valuable International Artwork, with zero Bank.
