The Fədəratəd Bailiwicks of Verdant Haven is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Iskandar Viridi with a fair hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.293 billion HavÉnians 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 enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Havəntia. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Verdant Havenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,628 trillion Vərdəthalərs a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 175,191 Vərdəthalərs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Park rangers struggle to deal with a rash of stolen pic-a-nic baskets, the nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments, would-be emigrants are told "abandon all hope all ye who would exit here", and employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Verdant Haven's national animal is the Thylacinə, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Verdant Haven is ranked 282,853^rd in the world and 317^th in Forest for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -24.13 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
