The Federal Republic of Nantuket is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Hachiko VII with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.365 billion Nantuks are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Akita. The average income tax rate is 90.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Nantuk economy, worth 811 trillion Nantuk Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 78,251 Nantuk Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government frequently panders to parents with boutique tax credits, retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, and genocide is seen as a topic best avoided in history lessons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Nantuket's national animal is the Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nantuket is ranked 284,705^th in the world and 24^th in Kyodeia for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.58 kickbacks per hour.
