The Republic of Bylaw is a massive, pleasant nation, renowned for its burgeoning kiwi population. The hard-working population of 2.997 billion Bylawians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 25.6%.

The Bylawian economy, worth 112 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Soda Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 37,500 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bylaw's national animal is the kiwi.

Bylaw is ranked 141,824^th in the world and 4,815^th in Osiris for Most Armed, with 0.33 weapons per person.
