The United States of The Polar Reigons is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Mr Polar Bear with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, sprawling nuclear power plants, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.262 billion Polar Reigonsians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of McMurdo City. The average income tax rate is 89.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Polar Reigonsian economy, worth 306 trillion Dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 135,612 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Passive-aggressive congratulations cards inform mums-to-be that their pregnancy is their greatest achievement in life, military equipment is being auctioned off to extend comatose centenarians' lives, the new Liquor Legitimacy Office is besieged with job applications from people who have experience in "statistical sampling methods", and people with political aspirations study how to make balloon animals. Crime is totally unknown. The Polar Reigons's national animal is the Polar Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is No Official Religion.

The Polar Reigons is ranked 265,141st in the world and 4,672nd in the South Pacific for Most Average, scoring 22.84 on the Average Standardized Normality Scale.
