The Bits and Bytes of Binary is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Electron with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, daily referendums, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 18.999 billion Bytens 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Circuit City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.3%.
The powerhouse Byten economy, worth a remarkable 1,807 trillion Bits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 95,160 Bits, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 273,230 per year while the poor average 26,354, a ratio of 10.4 to 1.
Judicial robes are the country's hottest fashion trend, new pilots are regularly reminded that they are more expendable than their planes, drill sergeants yell in the ears of bespectacled nerds in cybermilitary "reboot camps", and coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Binary's national animal is the Silicite, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Binarism.
Binary is ranked 33,151st in the world and 108th in Capitalist Paradise for Most World Assembly Endorsements, with zero valid endorsements.
