The Queendom of Ice Queen is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 5.023 billion Ice Queenians 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 medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beacon. The average income tax rate is 79.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ice Queenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,081 trillion liens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 215,317 liens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Formula One cars in Ice Queen boast 56 miles per gallon, excited shovel-bearing geeks wander the countryside, one-man canoes fitted with the latest tracking technology leave no room for one man, and park rangers struggle to deal with a rash of stolen pic-a-nic baskets. Crime is totally unknown. Ice Queen's national animal is the arctic wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ice Queen is ranked 32,886th in the world and 33rd in Ambition for Most Extreme, scoring 38.15 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
