The Armed Republic of Libertoni is a large, cultured nation, renowned for its daily referendums, public floggings, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 84 million Libertonians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.3%.

The very strong Libertonian economy, worth 5.17 trillion sucres a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Soda Sales, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 61,534 sucres, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

People say that cubists are rubbish because they can't draw faces, the nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned, government police forces protect public schools from the threat of protest, and diners regard burgers made from mechanically reclaimed cow protein as "proper meat". Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Libertoni's national animal is the condor, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Libertoni is ranked 75,072^nd in the world and 171^st in A Taco Paradise for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,235.69 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
