The United Socialist States of Shy Guy Nation is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by General Guy with an iron fist, and notable for its parental licensing program, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 5.562 billion Shy Guys 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 relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shy Guy Falls. The average income tax rate is 33.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Shy Guy economy, worth a remarkable 1,067 trillion roubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 191,990 roubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.
'To Regulate And Beyond' is the unofficial motto of the Shy Guy Space Agency, Shy Guys believe manners maketh the leader, Cult of Speed now admits men and women into its clergy, and blasphemers and government critics often die in very unusual and unlikely accidents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Shy Guy Nation's national animal is the ostrich, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cult of Speed.
Shy Guy Nation is ranked 236,804th in the world and 314th in Wintreath for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -15.23 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
