The Islāmī Jumhūriyah of Republiae is a huge, cultured nation, ruled by Pierre Sallisz with a fair hand, and renowned for its teetotalling pirates, daily referendums, and frequent executions. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 776 million Republians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bostan. The average income tax rate is 14.2%.

The all-consuming Republian economy, worth 90.8 trillion Stolzes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 117,061 Stolzes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Pareidolic SETI scientists swear there's a message from aliens hidden within pi, bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins, candidates for public office painstakingly research their family trees to ensure their eligibility, and ghost regiments exist only on paper. Crime is relatively low. Republiae's national animal is the Great Auk.

Republiae is ranked 67,193rd in the world and 1,373rd in The East Pacific for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 457.4 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
