The Republic of Snobjerg is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Anders with a fair hand, and remarkable for its national health service, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.767 billion Snobjergians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tyrfjell. The average income tax rate is 52.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Snobjergian economy, worth 154 trillion rikskrones a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 87,490 rikskrones, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Scientists have great chemistry with their subjects, military officials are questioning the policy of ceding the nation's territory in exchange for promises not to invade it, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, and grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Snobjerg's national animal is the reindeer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Snobjerg is ranked 40,790^th in the world and 132^nd in Nordic Lands for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 51.96 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
