The Intergalactic Imperium of Florevana is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Sophus Omniel V with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.274 billion Florevanans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Florence. The average income tax rate is 95.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Florevanan economy, worth 767 trillion flors a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 145,448 flors, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Officials pull all-nighters to check immigrants for potential links to terrorists, antique comic book collectors are disappointed to hear that their treasures are worth exactly as little as their mothers said they were, a new guerrilla marketing campaign for tap water involves government agents spraying random citizens with hose water, and academics have a bone to pick with free market entrepreneurs. Crime is totally unknown. Florevana's national animal is the honey badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Florevana is ranked 15,419^th in the world and 634^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 93.76 law-abiding acts per hour.
