The Colony of Twenty-five is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 963 million Twenty-fiveans 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 minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.

The strong Twenty-fivean economy, worth 45.1 trillion aurums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 46,832 aurums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 301,839 per year while the poor average 2,935, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes and surveillance cameras are banned. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Twenty-five's national animal is the bovina, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Twenty-five is ranked 190,972^nd in the world and 7^th in The Atlantic Alliance for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring zero on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
