The Free Land of Swordbreak is a titanic, safe nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The quiet, industrious population of 23.543 billion Swordbreakians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Daggerheld. The average income tax rate is 78.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Swordbreakian economy, worth a remarkable 1,257 trillion drakes a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 53,410 drakes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Swordbreak has designated Daggerheld as its capital city, artists are pillars of society, travel bureaus double as recruiting centers for national intelligence agencies, and extraordinary tribunals try accused financial criminals. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Swordbreak's national animal is the Dragoon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Swordbreak is ranked 244,068^th in the world and 2,284^th in the Rejected Realms for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -5.48 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
