The Republic of White Tape is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 750 million White Tapeans 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 relatively small government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Administration, and Law & Order also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 18.5%.

The strong White Tapean economy, worth 40.2 trillion deniers a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 53,560 deniers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Seasonal hay-fever sufferers are attending government drug counselling sessions to get free doughnuts, government reports are now used to teach toddlers to read, newlywed misogynists complain about their wives keeping their maiden names, and skateboarding is punishable by heavy fines. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. White Tape's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

White Tape is ranked 216,961st in the world and 462nd in Taperegiona for Largest Populations, with 750 million capita.
