The Inactive Flock of New Birblands is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Birbrul with an iron fist, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, otherworldly petting zoo, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 12.927 billion birbs are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Healthcare, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Birblin. The average income tax rate is 67.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient birblandic economy, worth a remarkable 1,276 trillion birbseeds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 98,761 birbseeds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Hotels often double as quarantine zones, children deemed 'disorderly' or otherwise unfit for public schools are shipped off to military academies, school uniforms are compulsory, and travel bureaus double as recruiting centers for national intelligence agencies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Birblands's national animal is the birb, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Chirpism.

New Birblands is ranked 34,694th in the world and 637th in The East Pacific for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 5,169.61 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
