The Republic of Coolibeer is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its feral children, smutty television, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 12.745 billion Coolibeerians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Coolibeerian economy, worth a remarkable 4,863 trillion dolars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 381,638 dolars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,698,333 per year while the poor average 53,374, a ratio of 31.8 to 1.
The entire entry for Coolibeer in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the World reads 'mostly harmless', morale within the seismologist community has hit rock bottom, mandatory state-funded classes teach Libertarianism, and grandiose stage parents insist superyachts and private cinemas are children's basic needs. Crime is totally unknown. Coolibeer's national animal is the hiena, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Coolibeer is ranked 276,339th in the world and 6,965th in Lazarus for Fattest Citizens, with 1.8 Obesity Rate.
