The Stone of Sylestone is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by A Fridge with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, otherworldly petting zoo, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 12.657 billion Sylestoneans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Avondale. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Sylestonean economy, worth a remarkable 1,637 trillion Rubber Chickens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 129,337 Rubber Chickens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians are often seen attending regional history classes at primary schools within their constituencies, genetic researchers have been expelled, dreams of entering the Super League have been relegated to the history books, and grocery stores can be audibly identified by the giggling emerging from them. Crime is totally unknown. Sylestone's national animal is the Margaret, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is None.

Sylestone is ranked 31,830^th in the world and 15^th in Esportiva for Lowest Crime Rates, with 81.66 law-abiding acts per hour.
