The Freelands of Barbariax is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Barbo McBarbari with a fair hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, digital currency, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 17.254 billion Barbariaxians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barbariax City. The average income tax rate is 8.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Barbariaxian economy, worth a remarkable 6,343 trillion Barbs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 367,654 Barbs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's nuclear defence policy is to "turn the other cheek", the government-sponsored autobiography 'A Barbo McBarbari For All Seasons' has only been bought by the most loyal of Barbo McBarbari's supporters, a PhD just ain't what it used to be, and X-Files ratings have hit an all-time low. Crime is totally unknown. Barbariax's national animal is the Barbar, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Barbariax is ranked 310,298^th in the world and 1^st in Novus Lucidum for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -9.7 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
