The Armed Republic of The 32 Counties is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Tiberius Septim with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, state-planned economy, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 16.409 billion 32 Countiesians 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, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Welfare, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Pale. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient 32 Countiesian economy, worth a remarkable 5,123 trillion Punts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 312,211 Punts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fraternities are notorious for drunken hooliganism, workers tend to schedule naps during all-hands meetings, protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, and international tensions are high as The 32 Counties threatens any government with the audacity to arrest its citizens. Crime is totally unknown. The 32 Counties's national animal is the Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Cult of the Supreme Being.

The 32 Counties is ranked 95,003rd in the world and 3rd in The Internationale for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,037.96 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
