The Federal Republic of Agora Highland is a very large, genial nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 182 million Agora Highlandians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 30.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Agora Highlandian economy, worth 6.83 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Pizza Delivery, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,510 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, male politicians lose their jobs for staring too long at their female counterparts, citizens are expected to be proficient in at least five languages, and Agora Highland is notorious for its citizens' infidelity. Crime is totally unknown. Agora Highland's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Agora Highland is ranked 269,274th in the world and 4,889th in the South Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 0.83 flags saluted per person per day.
