The Community of Second Conch Republic is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its deadly medical pandemics, daily referendums, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.98 billion Conches are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Industry, although Defense, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while Welfare and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Key West. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Floridian economy, worth 205 trillion US Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and dominated by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Soda Sales, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 103,549 US Dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 652,305 per year while the poor average 6,903, a ratio of 94.5 to 1.

The government funds private schools for intellectually gifted children, commuters and their desktops both bemoan their hard drives, the past is set in stone, and government statisticians explain census inaccuracies by declaring that "Sith happens". Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Second Conch Republic's national animal is the Atlantic Sailfish, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Second Conch Republic is ranked 84,398^th in the world and 3,437^th in Balder for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,559.99 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
