The Commonwealth of Free Guardians is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Traveler with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The quiet, industrious population of 23.514 billion Free Guardiansians 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 Defense, Education, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Last City. The average income tax rate is 79.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Free Guardiansian economy, worth 968 trillion Glimmers 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 Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 41,186 Glimmers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around The Last City, the government funds large training centres to turn Travelers into functioning members of society, Travelerism has been named as Free Guardians's national religion, and the commercialisation of highly deadly weapons has instilled Free Guardians with a very polite populace. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Free Guardians's national animal is the Traveler, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Travelerism.

Free Guardians is ranked 2,452nd in the world and 6th in Spiritus for Most Stationary, with 3,932.7058164 days.
