The Colours of Under the Rainbow is a massive, genial nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The democratic population of 2.035 billion Under the Rainbowians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 63.1%.

The Under the Rainbowian economy, worth 79.8 trillion friends 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 a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. 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 39,218 friends, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans, the populace harbors a fierce hatred of the metric system, political candidates who don't release their birth certificates are presumed to have been born in Maxtopia, and both criminals and civilians are DOA. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Under the Rainbow's national animal is the friend, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Under the Rainbow is ranked 225,781^st in the world and 21^st in Abraxas for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 267.97 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
