The Most Serene State of Ligurian Republic is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.509 billion Ligurians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Genova. The average income tax rate is 54.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ligurian economy, worth 371 trillion Ligurian Lire a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 106,002 Ligurian Lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Autumn landscape paintings feature men stripping leaves from bare branches with a vacuum, group hugs break out during floor votes, robosexual marriages are increasingly common, and fancy dress parties are raided by military police for new recruits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ligurian Republic's national animal is the griffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholic.

Ligurian Republic is ranked 27,416^th in the world and 1^st in Ligurian Republic for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,798.72 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
