The Utilitarian Republic of Freedom and Democratic Socialist is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Ray Miracle with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, parental licensing program, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.383 billion Utilitarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Internationale. The average income tax rate is 96.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Utilitarian economy, worth 621 trillion Social Welfares 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 Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 183,818 Social Welfares, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children usually cry on their first day of school, citizens praise the weeds that overwhelm their narrow vegetable realm, the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Internationale, and members of the government all have oddly similar anecdotes about their childhoods. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Freedom and Democratic Socialist's national animal is the Homo Neandhertal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Utilitarianism.

Freedom and Democratic Socialist is ranked 259,682^nd in the world and 4,829^th in The North Pacific for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring -4.58 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
