The Winter Wonderland of The North Pole is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning Polar Bear population. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 23.715 billion North Poleans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Administration, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 36.3%.

The North Polean economy, worth 819 trillion Snows a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. Average income is 34,563 Snows, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate. The North Pole's national animal is the Polar Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The North Pole is ranked 169,560^th in the world and 304^th in Ancient Lands for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,047.38 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
