The Federal Republic of Nector is a mid-sized, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its daily referendums, frequent executions, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 85 million Nectorians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 43.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Nectorian economy, worth 2.48 trillion Gold grams a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,174 Gold grams, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Group photos of the members of parliament are often mistaken for family reunions, all tribal children are set for life with guaranteed government jobs, the weather in Nector City is always 'pigeons with a chance of droppings', and the government hopes austerity will lead to prosperity. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nector's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nector is ranked 55,758th in the world and 458th in Europeia for Most Cultured, scoring 71 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
