The Free Federal Republic of Nordhpadhan is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Bartolomeo Colleoni with a fair hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 9.651 billion Nordhpadhanians 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 relatively small government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Environment, and Defense are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wenedhig. The average income tax rate is 21.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nordhpadhanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,369 trillion Free Francs a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 141,896 Free Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Possession of tomato seeds with intent to garden is a criminal offence, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, and high school band practice is often crashed by technicolor-clad ravers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nordhpadhan's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Heathenism and Hellenism.

Nordhpadhan is ranked 4,837^th in the world and 4^th in Lands End for Best Weather, with 305 meters of sunlight.
