The Most Serene Republic of Babblijabs is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Regina Iconicus Gina Comastia with a fair hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.676 billion Babblijabsians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jabblijibs. The average income tax rate is 85.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Babblijabsian economy, worth 118 trillion bingbongs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 44,180 bingbongs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Legislators work 24/7 due to an influx of single-issue bills, the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, they say that Babblijabsians made a dessert and called it peace, and there's no cure or sympathy for the common cold. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Babblijabs's national animal is the Greater Crested Moon Pigeon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Babblijabs is ranked 254,904^th in the world and 12,081^st in the South Pacific for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring -118.21 on the Hayek Index.
