The Republic of Infinite Beauty is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, prohibition of alcohol, and enforced nudity. The compassionate, democratic population of 556 million Infinite Beautyians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 64.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Infinite Beautyian economy, worth 22.8 trillion Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 40,997 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children aren't allowed to chew their pencils until they get home from school, the needs of the living outweigh the needs of the dead, the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Infinite Beauty City, and traveller camps regularly block five-lane superhighways. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Infinite Beauty's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Infinite Beauty is ranked 265,713^th in the world and 176^th in Karma for Most Patriotic, with 0.97 flags saluted per person per day.
