The Social Liberal Union of Northern Water Tribes is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Vatra Tilia with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, cynical population of 1.18 billion Northern Waterbenders are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ambesia Q'ela. The average income tax rate is 25.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Northerner economy, worth 77.8 trillion Moons a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is 65,950 Moons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans, private pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are given away freely by the government, the government funds large training centres to turn Catran Ice Axolotls into functioning members of society, and the sanitised and dull music festivals of Northern Water Tribes are famed for their reasonable volume levels. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern Water Tribes's national animal is the Catran Ice Axolotl, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Northern Water Tribes is ranked 94,019^th in the world and 1^st in Celestial Union for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 2,625.45 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
