The Free Land of Of The Bannana Boat Republic is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Venetus with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 4.636 billion Bannana Boat Republicians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Bannana Stand. The average income tax rate is 91.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient The Bannana Boat Republician economy, worth 596 trillion Goldbacks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 128,598 Goldbacks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The army consists of only generals and grunts, incarcerated crime lords manage their empires from massage tables, fashion models are guaranteed to be 100% genuinely as anorexic as they appear on magazine covers, and trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Of The Bannana Boat Republic's national animal is the Scarab, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Of The Bannana Boat Republic is ranked 9,409th in the world and 280th in the South Pacific for Safest, scoring 122.09 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
