The Republic of Default Text is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, anti-smoking policies, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.213 billion Default Textians 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 medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 36.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Default Textian economy, worth 91.6 trillion Defaults a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 41,371 Defaults, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is a clear-cut case of tyranny by majority, everyone has the equal opportunity to have their wallet stolen, morale within the seismologist community has hit rock bottom, and medical experts advise that those claiming to be medical experts are probably fraudsters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Default Text's national animal is the Default, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Default Text is ranked 167,968^th in the world and 4^th in Miram for Least Corrupt Governments, with 92.97 percentage of bribes refused.
