The Free Land of Imphic is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by First Comrade with a fair hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.624 billion Imphicians 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 enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neour. The average income tax rate is 95.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Imphician economy, worth 411 trillion Woolongs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 156,906 Woolongs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Motivational posters send motorists positive vibes in high-risk areas, the contraband cigarette trade is lighting up across Imphic, prisoners can't do number twos without their "toilet buddy" present, and getting an abortion takes less hassle than writing a letter. Crime is totally unknown. Imphic's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Free Inquiry.

Imphic is ranked 140,854^th in the world and 17^th in USSR for Largest Retail Industry, scoring 923.5 on the Shrinkwrap Consignment Productivity Index.
