The Republic of Nerdherdia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Head Minister Toby Renfro with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cheerful population of 21.306 billion Nerads 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 Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jackson City. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Neradian economy, worth a remarkable 2,538 trillion dollars a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 119,132 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All guns must be registered, Head Minister Toby Renfro is strangely popular with male politicians' wives, innocent defendants often plead guilty for fear of receiving a much harsher sentence before jury, and people who have had childhood imaginary friends are told they can't ever be trusted with guns. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nerdherdia's national animal is the Brown Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nerdherdia is ranked 6,318^th in the world and 11^th in Concord for Safest, scoring 127.46 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
