The Empire of SkyBlue is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 7.013 billion SkyBlueans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.1%.

The frighteningly efficient SkyBluean economy, worth 826 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 117,883 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Leader has been self-declared as the Most Supreme Magnificent Overlord of Everything You Ever Saw, builders across SkyBlue are blocked up with orders for new public loos, throwing garbage out of your house's front window makes it legally someone else's problem, and police conduct weekly raids looking for contraband cheeseburgers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SkyBlue's national animal is the falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

SkyBlue is ranked 57,688^th in the world and 811^th in the Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 46,984.05 Standard Monetary Units.
