The Republic of North Colombia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and keen interest in outer space. The devout population of 11.824 billion North Colombians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Woodmont. The average income tax rate is 59.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse North Colombian economy, worth 720 trillion American Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 60,899 American Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

The government is using tax revenues to provide jobs for the poor, riots have broken out as a water shortage threatens North Colombia's stability, children as young as twelve are conscripted into the armed forces, and the nation has an international reputation for compassion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Colombia's national animal is the Andean Condor, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholicism.

North Colombia is ranked 193,555^th in the world and 6,880^th in Lazarus for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -4.9 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
