The Federal Commonwealth of Nitropol is a massive, safe nation, ruled by The Sovereign Parliament with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, otherworldly petting zoo, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 4.345 billion Nitropolians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Free City of Ultima. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nitropolian economy, worth 568 trillion Nitórs a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 130,867 Nitórs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sex changes are routinely performed at Nitropol's hospitals, traumatised refugees have a full bedpan shoved into their hands along with their immigration papers, all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', and physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques. Crime is totally unknown. Nitropol's national animal is the Raccoon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Nitropol is ranked 65,167^th in the world and 8^th in Heart for Most Patriotic, with 21.64 flags saluted per person per day.
