The Liberal Democracy of Liberepublia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Belle Epauch with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 14.582 billion Librepublicans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pedimont. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Liberepublian economy, worth a remarkable 4,534 trillion democradollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 310,977 democradollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Some say Belle Epauch has gone MAD after authorizing the development of apocalyptic biological weapons, people think garlic bread counts as one of their "five a day", online weather reports are predicting five years of glorious sunshine for Liberepublia, and balaclava manufacturers are held criminally culpable for bank heists. Crime is almost non-existent. Liberepublia's national animal is the peace dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Secularism.

Liberepublia is ranked 5,577^th in the world and 36^th in Europe for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 9,298.81 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
