The Colony of Queen bee 2020 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, frequent executions, and public floggings.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 47.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Queen bee 2020ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,249 trillion honeys a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 135,085 honeys, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, 13-year-old internet trolls are treated as a threat on par with terrorists, citizens insist that there's no law against standing downwind when marijuana crops are burned off, and nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths.

Queen bee 2020's national animal is the bee, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
