The Budding Anarchostate of New Rubberduckia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by ducks of the world with an even hand, and notable for its lack of airports, keen interest in outer space, and national health service. The compassionate population of 5.39 billion Duckians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port-dukland. The average income tax rate is 81.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong New Rubberduckian economy, worth 318 trillion Duxes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Cheese Exports. Average income is 59,144 Duxes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Super Barry Brothers is the most popular video game in the nation, carbon-footprint restrictions are making businesses walk, unpopular cops are fired at a moment's notice by the citizens they police, and clowns are being rounded up and admitted to mental institutions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. New Rubberduckia's national animal is the Rubber duckie, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

New Rubberduckia is ranked 15,620^th in the world and 346^th in The East Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 9,062.81 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
