The People's Equanimous Republic of Naivetry is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Katerina Ariadakou with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 37.179 billion Naivetrians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arteamaes. The average income tax rate is 76.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Naivetrian economy, worth a remarkable 5,633 trillion tale and Equiliants a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 151,515 tale and Equiliants, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky, guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, the government mails weekly updates on the new anti-junk mail laws to every citizen, and Naivetrians seem to be catching more chills. Crime is totally unknown. Naivetry's national animal is the mallard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Naivetry is ranked 45,518^th in the world and 28^th in Equilism for Safest, scoring 104.27 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
