The Republic of Pontbridge is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Stylesjl with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, daily referendums, and digital currency. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 36.667 billion Pontbridgers live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Administration and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pontbridge. The average income tax rate is 20.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Pontbridger economy, worth an astonishing 19,644 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is a breathtaking 535,767 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

The diplomatic corps stinks, being Stylesjl has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs, solid-gold toilets are Pontbridger prisons' least expensive furnishings, and the government's giant servers are often used as a tourist trap. Crime is totally unknown. Pontbridge's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Pontbridge is ranked 403^rd in the world and 1^st in Pontbridge Islands for Nicest Citizens, with 122.13 average smiles per day.
