The Rising Eagle of Inspiratus is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Claudius Gracchus with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 8.656 billion Inspiratusians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Urbs Altus. The average income tax rate is 39.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Inspiratusian economy, worth a remarkable 1,887 trillion Monetas a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 218,064 Monetas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Old warplanes and tanks that break down can't be repaired since no one makes the parts anymore, the government subsidises medicines of mass destruction, one can wake up in Inspiratus and have breakfast in Bigtopia, and radio stations offer prizes to callers who can guess this month's most endangered species. Crime is totally unknown. Inspiratus's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Illuminatism.

Inspiratus is ranked 293,000^th in the world and 6,414^th in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -1102.72 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
