The Community of Extebly is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Thomas E Extebly with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate population of 10.468 billion Exteblyians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Extebly City. The average income tax rate is 71.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Exteblyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,513 trillion Extebly Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 144,602 Extebly Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Doctors are learning that red tape makes ineffective bandages, sporting events are the biggest source of funding for Exteblyian schools, university applicants are judged by how much they laugh at professors' tired jokes, and the poorest Exteblyians live in 'the stacks'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Extebly's national animal is the Squid, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Religious Pluralism.

Extebly is ranked 11,998^th in the world and 480^th in Osiris for Highest Poor Incomes, with 115,505.97 Standard Monetary Units.
