The Most Serene Republic of 0x79 is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 7.777 billion 0x79ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 31.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient 0x79ian economy, worth 232 trillion bytes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,851 bytes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Psychological disorders are a taboo subject, advertisements for jobs in the sciences run in fashion magazines, the new one byte coin also makes a handy throwing-star, and high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 0x79's national animal is the RAM.

0x79 is ranked 39,751^st in the world and 74^th in Bytes for Most Primitive, scoring 62.85 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
