The Republic of Psyleba is a large, genial nation, notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 104 million Psylebans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 51.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Psyleban economy, worth 3.20 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Trout Farming, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 30,790 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, military spending recently hit a new high, citizens try to pass off bottlecaps they found in their backyards as historical artifacts, and kids are arrested at gunpoint for playing with toy rifles. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Psyleba's national animal is the unicorn.

Psyleba is ranked 299,589^th in the world and 447^th in Starlight for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 14,964.35 Standard Monetary Units.
