The Empire of Libera Rex is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Linus Torvalds with an even hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, pith helmet sales, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.746 billion Libera Rexians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rexopolis. The average income tax rate is 72.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Libera Rexian economy, worth 681 trillion Libucks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 88,007 Libucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation takes the world's poor and tired and the huddled Masses yearning to breathe free, the aphorism "there's no need to argue" has been dismissed by Libera Rexians, young girls aren't having a ball but they are enjoying themselves, and criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Libera Rex's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is FOSS Foundation.

Libera Rex is ranked 43,681^st in the world and 1,144^th in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 76.24 law-abiding acts per hour.
