The Freshest People's Republic of The Swaggerlands is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Eepel Mneepel with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cheerful population of 9.516 billion Swaggerlanders are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort Divorce. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Swag economy, worth a remarkable 1,420 trillion donks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 149,265 donks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Holiday light displays just aren't the same without seizure-inducing strobe effects, consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, roadside walls are being built and mother nature is paying for it, and thieves find battery shops juicier targets than banks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Swaggerlands's national animal is the Arctic monkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Swaggerlands is ranked 304,030^th in the world and 205^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -9.26 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
