The Blue Holy Republic of The Revolution That Has No Big Banks is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Santa with an even hand, and renowned for its public floggings, national health service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 13.534 billion Revolutionists are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of North Pole. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The thriving Revolutionary economy, worth a remarkable 1,561 trillion Gold Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 115,341 Gold Coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 343,457 per year while the poor average 30,349, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.

Farting etiquette is taught in schools, several inches are being added to first class seating, criminals tell the police where their jurisdiction ends, and parents receive hefty fines for telling kids to eat their vegetables. Crime is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. The Revolution That Has No Big Banks's national animal is the Cow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The Revolution That Has No Big Banks is ranked 265,678th in the world and 290th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Safest, scoring 9.75 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
