The Federal Republic of Albertopia is a small, efficient nation, renowned for its frequent executions, daily referendums, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 23 million Albertopians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Administration, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.3%.

The thriving Albertopian economy, worth 1.73 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 75,339 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.4 times as much as the poorest.

Rumor has it that Leader has won three lotteries in a row, the tools of the trade for landmine clearance appear to be copious amounts of gasoline and a box of matches, the thin blue line is composed of picketing police officers demanding better pensions, and studio executives abandon tragic stories of star-crossed lovers because "it's been done". Crime is almost non-existent. Albertopia's national animal is the Bear.

Albertopia is ranked 232,058^th in the world and 137^th in The Western Isles for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 179.21 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
