The Republic of Intelligensias is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed population of 211 million Intelligensiasians are prohibited from doing almost everything but make sure no one in government gets away with anything either.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 50.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Intelligensiasian economy, worth 15.9 trillion dollars a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 75,591 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Selling advanced CPUs to anti-Intelligensiasian terrorists is no chip on the government's shoulders, new government leaflets tell coeliac children to eat more crisps, business owners return from long vacations to find their factories have been turned into homeless shelters, and new mothers can pay for their weekly grocery shop with a bottle of breast milk. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Intelligensias's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Intelligensias is ranked 93,186^th in the world and 1,701^st in The North Pacific for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 50.23 Effective Tax Rate.
