The Federation of Narvatus is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its teetotalling pirates, zero percent divorce rate, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.585 billion Narvatusians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Usoreum. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Narvatusian economy, worth a remarkable 2,850 trillion ounces 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 Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. 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 amazing 269,284 ounces, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Artists are pillars of society, bald-headed monks sit around the National Meditation Park looking smugly content, cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes, and sharks are enjoying their deliveries of canned food. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Narvatus's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the holiest freedoms.

Narvatus is ranked 240,126^th in the world and 403^rd in The Free Nations Region for Most Politically Apathetic Citizens, with 24.65 Whatever.
