Flag: A crescent moon in a midnight blue sky with a dark green strip along the bottom.
Economy: It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of the Environment, Education, and Social Welfare. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.
The Ineedsleep Lemon Enforcement Agency has launched a campaign against growing, manufacturing, or trafficking of the illicit lemonade, or its primaries - lemons and sugar. Border controls have be tightened.
Currency: The biscuit - the only currency to solve all problems of inflation and hoarding by being both eatable and perishable.
Disputes international: Ineedsleep has tried to maintain neutrality in the increasingly unstable SouthEast section of the West Pacific. It has close ties with it's neighbours Nadnerb, Minineenee and Zetaone, but also a long-standing friendship and support for Gosstoepia.
