The Democratic Republic of Sigmabiber is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its digital currency, prohibition of alcohol, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 1.166 billion Sigmabiberians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 80.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sigmabiberian economy, worth 124 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 107,023 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Farting etiquette is taught in schools, outdoor parties in Sigmabiber City are all the rave, teenagers performing appendectomies on their friends has become a popular schoolyard prank, and graffiti is done with immaculate multi-layer shading. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sigmabiber's national animal is the Commrade bird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Sigmabiber is ranked 320,913^th in the world and 498^th in Starlight for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 20.62 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
