The Free Land of Amalfi Bay is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 1.063 billion Amalfi Bayians 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 enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Glasgay. The average income tax rate is 89.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Amalfi Bayian economy, worth 112 trillion Pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 106,299 Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military maintains a fierce arsenal of 'Cure Missiles', high school band practice is often crashed by technicolor-clad ravers, grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly, and libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amalfi Bay's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Tunnock's.

Amalfi Bay is ranked 5,278^th in the world and 2^nd in MHBs New Earth for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 59.47 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
