The Federal Republic of Libesia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its closed borders, public floggings, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.701 billion Libesians 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, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gbadokwa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.6%.

The large but underdeveloped Libesian economy, worth 129 trillion hyperinflated dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 27,472 hyperinflated dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 85,885 per year while the poor average 6,742, a ratio of 12.7 to 1.

Frustrated teenage boys are told that if they like it then they should have put a ring on it, it turns out you can put a price on sporting integrity, the tomato-covered corpses that decorate the nation's cities are a favourite amongst morbid tourists, and ethnic minorities are often refused admission to some of the nation's best schools. Crime is a major problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Libesia's national animal is the crocodile, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Libesia is ranked 181,079^th in the world and 76^th in Africa for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6,746.02 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
