The Most Serene Republic of Hi bye is a massive, safe nation, ruled by The Council of Freedom with a fair hand, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, daily referendums, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 1.054 billion Hi byeans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Corporate City of Freedom. The average income tax rate is 40.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Hi byean economy, worth 100 trillion pixie dusts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 94,999 pixie dusts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The commercialisation of highly deadly weapons has instilled Hi bye with a very polite populace, every new toxic waste dump comes with a seal of approval from the government's science advisor, the native owl population is in permanent hibernation, and the price of takeaway food quadruples after 6pm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hi bye's national animal is the Hawk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Barryism.
Hi bye is ranked 130,354th in the world and 14th in Cardfarmers for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 40.31 Effective Tax Rate.
