The State of Nimpkish is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 44.144 billion Nimpkishians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Welfare, Education, and Environment are also considered important, while Law & Order and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.0%.

The thriving Nimpkishian economy, worth a remarkable 2,091 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 47,387 betales, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 284,452 per year while the poor average 3,571, a ratio of 79.6 to 1.

Five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes, women wear burqas to avoid unwanted male attention, public intoxication has decreased ever since fraternities were banned, and pet owners make sure their dogs wear diapers. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Nimpkish's national animal is the deer.

Nimpkish is ranked 136,592^nd in the world and 1^st in Nimpkish for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 723.02 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
