The Battling Bard of Potidaea is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 12.203 billion Potidaeans 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, prioritizes Defense, although Healthcare, Welfare, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.6%.

The strong Potidaean economy, worth 601 trillion Denars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, and Information Technology. Average income is 49,324 Denars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 317,899 per year while the poor average 3,091, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Potidaea's national animal is the Kitten.

Potidaea is ranked 45,682^nd in the world and 2^nd in The Alterran Republic for Most Primitive, scoring 57.88 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
