The Most Serene Republic of Glissbotia is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 299 million Glissbotians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government is primarily concerned with Education, with Industry, Healthcare, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 52.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Glissbotian economy, worth 22.3 trillion florins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 74,503 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed, children are disappointed to learn that cavemen never had a yabba-dabba-doo time riding dinosaurs to work, an alabaster statue of an ancient cat-deity takes pride of place in the centre of Glissbotia City, and ticket touts are blamed for the downfall of communism. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Glissbotia's national animal is the housecat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Glissbotia is ranked 22,963^rd in the world and 696^th in The North Pacific for Most Secular, with 47.28 Atheism Rate.
