The Kingdom of Insargia is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 346 million Insargians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 8.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Insargian economy, worth 30.1 trillion Poras a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Average income is 87,129 Poras, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

A few people seem to spend their whole time complaining, children gain their first sex education from reading the dictionary, the standard police uniform now comes with several colours of belt, and politicians have been known to swim in pools filled with Poras. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Insargia's national animal is the Lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Insargia is ranked 111,888^th in the world and 4^th in The Assembly Of Nations for Most Extreme, scoring 18.16 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
