The Nakedness of Sheelberite is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Walter J Peabody III with an even hand, and renowned for its disturbing lack of elderly people, daily referendums, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 12.622 billion Sheelberites enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bloodyoath. The average income tax rate is 69.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sheelberitean economy, worth a remarkable 2,137 trillion dollarydoos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Tourism and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 169,342 dollarydoos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Pandemics are over and done with by the time it takes to pass the nation's stringent border security, protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with Walter J Peabody III, and small children are frequently chased by rehabilitated pitbulls. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Sheelberite's national animal is the Flamin' Codswallop, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Pantheism.

Sheelberite is ranked 210,818^th in the world and 3,728^th in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 33.5 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
