The Federated Bailiwicks of Verdant Haven is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Iskandar Viridi with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ban on automobiles, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 12.756 billion Havenians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Haventia. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Verdant Havenian economy, worth a remarkable 3,450 trillion Verdethalers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 270,462 Verdethalers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Unstable couples are known to break up over which one gets parental leave, dentists routinely perform open heart surgery, social networking sites have discussion groups devoted to planning terrorist attacks, and high school bands practice by moonlight. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Verdant Haven's national animal is the Thylacine, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Verdant Haven is ranked 1,301^st in the world and 17^th in Forest for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 4,870.14 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
