The Commonwealth of Model 97 is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, complete lack of prisons, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The compassionate, democratic population of 703 million Modelians 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 medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Trenchia. The average income tax rate is 34.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Model 97ian economy, worth 45.3 trillion shells a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Pizza Delivery, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 64,378 shells, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pheasants are considered a delicacy, falling satellites are regarded as a blessing from the gods, the dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu, and Members of Parliament are often found living in cardboard boxes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Model 97's national animal is the pheasant, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Model 97 is ranked 206,603^rd in the world and 1,792^nd in the West Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2.28 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
