The Republic of Repub country is a large, genial nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 129 million Repub countryians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 22.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Repub countryian economy, worth 6.45 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 50,011 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lawyers spend as much time preparing their make-up as they do their briefs, cricket farmers use magnifying glasses to fit every member of their herd with tiny tracking tags, conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, and little kids often wonder why strange grown-ups are following them around the soft play areas. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Repub country's national animal is the gray wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Repub country is ranked 230,913^th in the world and 131^st in Corsair for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 29.51 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
