The Cavalier Republic of The Remote Islands is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President Olombo van Zhang-Größevett with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, zero percent divorce rate, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 17.366 billion Islanders have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Krèighton. The average income tax rate is 79.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Islander economy, worth a remarkable 1,268 trillion Question Marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 73,061 Question Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Suburban backyards are seized by the government and turned into national parks, criminals and college students are taking an interest in the government's new weed-killing program, a historic rise in the minimum wage has crushed the economy with inflation, and meat prices are soaring as the farming industry struggle under government-imposed restrictions. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Remote Islands's national animal is the dodo, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Remote Islands is ranked 40,984th in the world and 2nd in Pacific Ocean for Most Stationary, with 1,096.75793001892 days.
