The Republic of June 6 is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its public floggings, smutty television, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 299 million June 6ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 16.6%.

The strong June 6ian economy, worth 18.3 trillion Cards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 61,367 Cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Hundreds of teenagers die every year at the June 6ian Hungry Games, anything is permissible when wearing latex gloves, the demands of climate protestors are measured in spray-paint can sales, and foreign leaders who don't applaud Leader's speeches are regarded as enemies of June 6. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force. June 6's national animal is the Card, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

June 6 is ranked 228,520^th in the world and 78^th in Calendar for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 265.58 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
