The State of SBH is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete lack of public education, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 30.178 billion SBHians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, liberal, pro-business, outspoken individuals keep a keen eye out for any attempt to organize such a thing, and ruthlessly crush it. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Income tax is unheard of.

The strong SBHian economy, worth 951 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Cheese Exports, and Trout Farming. Average income is 31,537 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 214,418 per year while the poor average 1,694, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary and SBH has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. SBH's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

SBH is ranked 287,972nd in the world and 609th in Ancient Lands for Lowest Crime Rates, with 35.28 law-abiding acts per hour.
