The Free Federal Republic of Nordhpadhan is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by James Connolly with a fair hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 14.546 billion Nordhpadhanians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wenedhig. The average income tax rate is 43.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nordhpadhanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,095 trillion Free Francs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 144,030 Free Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

James Connolly is described as an everyday person with normal tastes and the usual interests, a positive pregnancy test doubles as a visa, the blood, sweat, and tears of poor Nordhpadhanians make research institutes rich, and Nordhpadhan's soft-touch approach to diplomacy has made it known as the 'push-over' of the region. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nordhpadhan's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Heathenism and Hellenism.

Nordhpadhan is ranked 17,029^th in the world and 24^th in Lands End for Lowest Crime Rates, with 92.25 law-abiding acts per hour.
