The Kingdom of Statelandistan is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 256 million Statelandistanians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 24.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Statelandistanian economy, worth 10.8 trillion Plaps a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Cheese Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,021 Plaps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Rumor has it that Leader has won three lotteries in a row, people can get away with murder these days, several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, and shoppers have literally had their hands full since plastic bags were banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Statelandistan's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Statelandistan is ranked 117,947^th in the world and 58^th in Ridgefield for Safest, scoring 74.54 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
