The Republic of Stumble Bee is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its suspicion of poets and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic, devout population of 4.638 billion Stumble Beeans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Spirituality, although Defense, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 37.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but sluggish Stumble Beean economy, worth 85.2 trillion energons a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Pizza Delivery, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 18,377 energons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and chrome-clad space marines are such stuff that dreams are made on. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stumble Bee's national animal is the scraplet, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Stumble Bee is ranked 245,051st in the world and 7,980th in Suspicious for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.77 kickbacks per hour.
