The Federated Bailiwicks of Verdant Haven is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Iskandar Viridi with a fair hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 12.537 billion Havenians 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 enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Haventia. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Verdant Havenian economy, worth a remarkable 3,330 trillion Verdethalers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 265,665 Verdethalers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Disadvantaged neighbourhoods have become no-go areas after sundown, groups of government workers are declared protected tribes if they venture too deep into the Capitol, the government is deliberately installing bloatware onto computers, and children's daycare starts at the crack of dawn. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Verdant Haven's national animal is the Thylacine, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Verdant Haven is ranked 12,777th in the world and 40th in Forest for Most Stationary, with 1,972.07723092532 days.
