The Republic of Barry Dylan is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 18.756 billion ODIN agents are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 41.9%.
The thriving ODIN economy, worth a remarkable 1,323 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 70,551 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.
Fur coats have become the latest fashion trend, discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, funerals are often rudely interrupted by juggling clowns shouting for volunteers from the audience, and the military is blowing up any threat to employment within the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Barry Dylan's national animal is the robot, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Barry Dylan is ranked 165,968th in the world and 20th in The Trunk of a Pontiac Tempest for Most Stationary, with 114.61188498168 days.
